BLUEBERRY, LEMON & POPPY SEED OVERNIGHT OATS IN A JAR

I had a delicious blueberry, lemon, and poppy seed muffin the other day and decided I needed more of that flavor in my life! So I made blueberry, lemon and poppy seed overnight oats. It’s a delicious way to start the day by kicking off your fiber goals and getting your daily berry intake. Blueberries are a little nutrient powerhouse (especially vitamin C, K, manganese, and potassium) and flavanols, which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

If you like your brekky on the sweeter side, you can add a chopped date or some maple syrup to it. I find that it really depends on how sweet the blueberries I’m using are, so if in doubt, you can always add a little sweetener later. Let me know if you try them!

  1. I love the idea that these can be part of meal prep. Can you substitute poppy seeds with any other seeds and if so, how much? Also, my non dairy milks have to be used within 4 days of opening so I presume that the keeping qualities in the fridge will depend on that date? Thank you.

    1. So glad you love the idea of using them for meal prep! If you wish to skip the poppy seeds, I’d just leave them out and use whichever seeds you like as a topping instead — pumpkin seeds could be lovely here 🙂

      For the milk, the recipes always assume that fresh ingredients are being used, so if your non-dairy milk has already been open for a few days, just take that into account when storing. If it’s fresh, the recipe should keep well for up to 4–5 days in the fridge. Hope you enjoy it! 💛

    1. It keeps for up to 5 days in the fridge. Just give it a good stir before eating, and add a splash of milk if you prefer a thinner consistency, it can firm up a bit after a few days. Hope you love it!
