Banana Bread Overnight Oats

I love overnight oats. Specifically, I love these Banana Bread Overnight Oats. I feel like if I’m going to eat oatmeal, it should taste like a desert and be semi-healthy.

Banana Bread Overnight Oats

I’ve been on this kick to eat healthier. It’s hard!!( So many donuts, so much bacon…) But I’ve been gradually changing the way I eat one meal at a time.

I don’t always make healthy choices, but I’m getting better.  I’ve always been a breakfast eater, but not a HEALTHY breakfast eater.

But it’s hard to cook up a healthy breakfast every morning in between getting Pookah to school and getting ready for work.  I needed something quick, healthy, and good. I heard about overnight oats and I was intrigued.

I did my research ( Pinterest of course) and discovered a lot of recipes but none that made me want to try. But what I did see were a lot of varieties of what has become my recipe for Banana Nut Bread Overnight Oats.

Of course, my Overnight Oats recipe is not only gluten-free but if you want to get technical, it’s vegan too!

Side note: I’m not Vegan, I’m just a weekday vegetarian.

Luckily, all of my ingredients were things that I already had in my pantry, which, let’s face it, is the hallmark of a good easy recipe.

This recipe is so so so good!

I’ve always loved banana bread and this tricks me into thinking I’m eating something I shouldn’t be in the morning. With minimal effort.

It’s so creamy, so easy, so good…..

Try it and let me know what you think!

Enjoy! I know I will!
