A delicious and healthy breakfast that is rich in fiber. That’s what these low FODMAP chocolate overnight oats are!

Prepping this breakfast is super simple. You put all the ingredients for the overnight oats together in a bowl. Give them a good stir, cover them up, and put them in the fridge overnight.

The next morning, you simply top them with some toppings of your choice, I use fresh raspberries and chocolate chips, and your breakfast is ready!

You can eat this at home, but it is also easy to take with you on the go.

How long do I have to put overnight oats into the fridge?

The name suggests that you should put your overnight oats breakfast in the fridge for an entire night.

While that is the option most people pick, prepping the oats in the evening and eating them for breakfast the next morning, you don’t need to wait an entire night for your overnight oats to be ready.

Four to five hours in the fridge is enough for the oats to soften.

How to prepare overnight oats for a week

You can store overnight oats in the fridge for up to 5 days. However, the oats will continue to soften and I personally prefer eating my overnight oats 1 or 2 days after I put them into the fridge.

A good strategy to prep overnight oats for 5 days is to put the dry ingredients together for 5 servings, stir them and divide them over 5 bowls or jars.

Then you only need to take 1 minute every evening to add the almond milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup to one of your bowls. Stir everything, cover it up, and put it into the fridge.

Or take a few minutes every 2 days to prepare two servings of overnight oats and repeat that. That’s how easy it is!
