HEALTH BENEFITS OF COLD BREW OVERNIGHT OATS
- Rolled oats are an excellent source of fiber! Fiber is CRUCIAL for good gut health!
- Chia seeds are another excellent source of fiber! Chia seeds also contain omega-3 fatty acids which lower inflammation and help with cognitive function.
- Milk (depending on what kind you use) is a great source of calcium and other minerals! I like to use soy milk or other plant based milks.
- Yogurt is excellent for gut health! Depending on what kind you use, it can also be a great source of protein too! I like to use organic yogurt and sometimes a coconut yogurt.
- Fun fact about coffee: it's America's leading source of antioxidants! But I still think we should be eating a bit more of those fruits & veggies lol!
Gather your supplies:
- Mason jars (or any sealed containers will work)
- Cold brew coffee maker (if making your own brew)
FAQ's
Does overnight oats make you lose weight?
Yes! You can eat overnight oats every day and lose weight. Overnight oats have a great balance of carbs, fats, and proteins. Plus, overnight oats are loaded with nutrients like fiber, iron, and more! Unlike regular oats, overnight oats are made with extra ingredients that will keep you full longer like chia seeds and yogurt.
Can you mix coffee and oatmeal?
Yes! Coffee oatmeal combines rich flavored coffee with satisfying oatmeal. Make your coffee oatmeal even better and add mix-ins like nuts, coco, fruit, or nut butters.
Can you make oatmeal with coffee instead of water?
Yes! For oats to soften, they really just need a liquid. This could be water, milk, and even coffee! Give it a try for an extra morning energy boost. 🙂
