Cinnamon Roll Overnight Oats

Melissa King 77 Comments

Cinnamon Roll Overnight Oats.  I have a new recipe for you.  Cinnamon roll vegan overnight oats.  Have you made overnight oats yet?

They are also often referred to as oats in a jar.  Basically, you just throw everything in a jar and refrigerate overnight.

What you end up with is a delicious oatmeal in the morning that requires no cooking!  I have been eating overnight oats for months now.

They are also very popular on my blog.  My favorite overnight oats recipe so far has been the Almond Butter Overnight Oats, but this cinnamon roll overnight oats recipe may be a close second.

It’s like the taste of a cinnamon roll in your morning oatmeal.  I like to store mine in mason jars.  They are perfect.

Recipe Notes

I used jumbo muffin pans and got only 4. You can probably get double the amount using standard sized muffin pans .

These should last a week in the fridge and longer in the freezer. And don’t forget, you can use gluten-free oats to make them gluten-free. Enjoy!

These gingerbread overnight oats can be made 5 at a time so you have quick grab and go breakfasts throughout the week.  I know there are cranberries in the photo, but not in the recipe. I did that for color, but feel free to add them in if you like.

I’ve been making my overnight oats with stevia lately.  I don’t notice the after taste in this recipe at all.  I love the fact that there is no sugar added.

If you do not want to used stevia, I will put other options in this recipe as well.

Special Birthday Cookies

Melissa King 27 Comments

On the 24th, my daughter Meadow turned 4.  She goes to pre-school and they celebrate birthdays.  So I made some special birthday chocolate chip cookies to take to her class. Let me say that there is some processed sugar in these.  Not much, but I bent my normal rules because it was her birthday treat.  I do allow my children to have treats once and a while, and a birthday is an occasion where a healthy chocolate chip cookie recipe that bends the rules a little is in order.

This healthy chocolate chip cookie recipe would be a great transition for those looking to eat healthier versions of sweets.  It’s sweeter than I normally would make, but if you are used to super sweet cookie recipes, this one is a great stepping stone.  Everyone loved them.  They are also gluten free and nut free!
