Fruity, flavored-pack overnight oats with frozen fruit is probably the easiest nutrient-packed breakfast you could make. This recipe includes dreamy creamy overnight oats mixed with your favorite fruit straight from your freezer.
This is a delectable breakfast to start your day. The oats soak up not just the milk but also the juices from your favorite frozen fruit defrosting.
There are so many different kinds of fruit you can get washed, peeled, chopped, and frozen. I like to use blueberries as they are available frozen all year round, they taste amazing, and are high in antioxidants.
When choosing what frozen fruit you are going to use, make sure they are ready to eat once defrosted. Here’s a list of some of my favorite frozen fruits:
- Blueberries
- Raspberries
- Mango
- Kiwi
- Peaches
