Keto Cinnamon Crunch Overnight "Oats"

If you're missing overnight oats for breakfast, why not try making this low-carb recipe? This overnight "oats" breakfast is packed with heart-healthy nuts, seeds, and cinnamon, making it delicious and nutritious. It is the ultimate family recipe to enjoy for breakfast or brunch on the weekend.

How to make Keto overnight oats?

Unlike traditional overnight oats, this Keto version is prepared with highly absorbent seeds instead of oats. We have used chia seeds and hemp seeds in this recipe, but other versions can include flax seeds as well. Using only chia or flax seeds would result in a more gelatinous pudding, but adding the hemp seeds helps achieve the perfect consistency.

How to customize this recipe?

You can make the oatmeal base as is and add different toppings. Instead of cinnamon crunch, you can make a variety of flavors. For tiramisu-flavored overnight oats, place a layer of espresso-soaked Keto cake in the center and dust the top with cocoa powder. For PB&J oats, add peanut butter to the mixture, and add a layer of sugar-free jam in the center and to the top. You can get as creative as possible, making endless Keto dessert recipes.

Can you use a different type of milk for this recipe?

Absolutely! A Keto diet for beginners should be as flexible and forgiving as possible. In place of almond milk, you can use other low-carb plant-based milk types made from coconut, cashews, and flaxseeds. You can even swap half the milk for heavy cream or coconut cream to increase the fat content.

    To a pitcher, add hemp seeds, chia seeds, powdered allulose, and ¼ tsp cinnamon. Mix, then stir in the almond milk, yogurt, and vanilla extract. Add ¼ cup of the seed mixture to each jar or glass. Add 1 tbsp of cinnamon crunch to each glass.

    Divide the remaining mixture among the 3 jars. Cover the glasses/jars with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. The next day, divide the remaining cinnamon crunch among the glasses/jars or add it right before serving to retain the crunch.
