Creamy lemon blueberry overnight oats bursting with bright flavor and naturally sweetened with a little pure maple syrup. These delicious, easy lemon blueberry overnight oats pack over 14 grams of protein and make the perfect meal prep breakfast for busy weeks.
In a medium bowl, add lemon zest, lemon juice, yogurt, milk, pure maple syrup (see notes below), and almond and vanilla extracts. Whisk together until well combined. Stir in chia seeds, and oats until well combined. Fold in the blueberries. I love to use frozen blueberries because it will give the overnight oats a gorgeous purple hint!
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 4 hours or overnight. Once ready to serve, divide between two 12 ounce mason jars, layering a spoonful of extra blueberries or even blueberry jam in the middle, if you’d like. I LOVE the look of the blueberry jam.
Top each overnight oat jar with granola, extra lemon zest and a few blueberries, if desired. Serves 2.
Notes
*To make dairy free / vegan: Use your favorite dairy free vanilla or coconut yogurt and be sure to use dairy free milk.**I find if you use vanilla yogurt it is sweet enough on its own, but if you use plain, you will need to add 1 to 2 tablespoons of pure maple syrup.
