I ordinarily love rain, but it has been oppressive the past few days!

I’ve been more than a little bummed out that we haven’t been able to go swimming…. so, while my husband worked all weekend, the girls and I stayed in and cooked and baked and ate. One of our favorite breakfasts to make are overnight oats.

While I love my favorite overnight oats, these are an equally delicious alternative. It really tastes like I’m eating cookie dough for breakfast, and what could be better than that?!

My husband described these as tasting like ‘oatmeal cookie dough with the icing all mixed together’…AKA, he liked them. 😀

  1. I’ve been having a variation on this recipe for breakfast nearly every morning this week, using peanut butter and Greek yogurt with nuts and seeds…I may very well be in love with cold overnight oats now 😀 Thank you! ♥

  7. yes! I knew I wasn’t the only one to think that almond butter gave a great cookie dough like flavor! I always add it in to my overnight oats and sometimes use a mix of the almonds with the skin on and almonds without (the ones without lend a much more sweet, marzipany flavor). I love the idea of using nutritional yeast, I must try it! Thanks for the idea 🙂

  11. I’ve tried that a looong time ago with the nutritional yeast, and I think I added too much of it?!! Hmmmm I’m sooo curious now and wanna give it another try! I’m not a picky eater with “funky” flavors, but the oatmeal I made with the yeast tasted cheesy. lol. 😛

  12. I’ve never heard that about nutritional yeast! Definitely have to give that a try soon. Who isn’t a sucker for anything with the words “Cookie dough” in it?!
    Also wanted to make sure you got my email reply the other day. Just found out today that a bunch of my emails were going to people’s spam for some reason (guess I pissed off gmail somehow ;)) Let me know if you didn’t and I’ll resend. 🙂

  13. Interesting!! I add nutritional yeast to salads and such, but overnight oats?!?
    Can’t imagine it tasting like cookie dough. Fascinating.
    I learn something new from you all the time, Lauren! 🙂
