Recipe: Cinnamon-Spiced Overnight Oats
CeylonBlends Editorial··⏱ 3 minrecipebreakfastoatscinnamonhealthymeal-prepno-cook
The easiest, most nourishing breakfast you can make — and Ceylon cinnamon transforms it from ordinary to genuinely delicious.
Overnight oats are one of the most practical breakfasts imaginable: prepared in 5 minutes the evening before, ready to eat cold (or gently warmed) in the morning, endlessly customisable, and genuinely nutritious. Ceylon cinnamon — with its delicate, layered sweetness — makes them taste far more indulgent than they are.
Serves: 1 | Prep: 5 min | Soak time: overnight
Base Ingredients
- ½ cup (50 g) rolled oats (not instant oats)
- ½ cup (125 ml) milk of choice (whole, oat, almond, or coconut all work well)
- ¼ cup (60 g) plain yoghurt
- ¾ tsp CeylonBlends Cinnamon Powder
- 1 tbsp chia seeds (optional, for extra fibre and thickness)
- 1–2 tsp honey or maple syrup
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Combine oats, milk, yoghurt, cinnamon, chia seeds, sweetener, and salt in a jar or container with a lid.
- Stir well until everything is evenly combined.
- Seal and refrigerate overnight (at least 6 hours, up to 3 days).
- In the morning, stir the oats. The mixture will have thickened considerably. Add a splash more milk if you prefer a looser consistency.
- Top with fresh fruit, nut butter, chopped nuts, seeds, or a drizzle of extra honey. Eat cold or microwave for 60–90 seconds if you prefer a warm bowl.
Batch tip: Make 4–5 jars on Sunday for the entire week. Keep refrigerated for up to 4 days.
