Easy Overnight Oats

This overnight oats recipe has been a labour of love in the Ellis household. Over a couple of months, James, his wife Laura and their kids, Martha and Gracie, tweaked, tested, and fine-tuned it to perfection — ensuring that it's not just healthy, but genuinely delicious. The goal? A nutrient-dense, protein-packed breakfast recipe that keeps you full and fuelled, without tasting like a chore to eat. 

What makes this recipe elevated? We’re using organic jumbo oats for their superior texture and slow-releasing energy, while chia seeds bring in a dose of omega-3s, fibre, and gut-friendly goodness.

A high-quality protein powder gives it muscle-supporting power, and full-fat Greek yoghurt delivers the perfect balance of creaminess and gut-boosting probiotics. Instead of refined sugars, we’re using Grade A maple syrup, which brings natural sweetness while adding trace minerals.

And, of course, there’s the pop of vibrant mixed berries, packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and natural tanginess to balance the flavours. This recipe is quick to prep and easy to customise, making it an ideal go-to for meal-prepped breakfasts.

Whether you're grabbing it straight from the fridge on a rushed morning or sitting down to enjoy it slowly, it's a satisfying, elevated way to start the day.
