A comforting and unique overnight oats recipe featuring a sticky, creamy texture with a savory garlic butter drizzle that adds a rich, flavorful twist to your breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (90g) old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup (240ml) whole milk or plant-based milk (oat milk recommended)
  • ½ cup (120g) plain full-fat Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for dairy-free)
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (Kerrygold or Plugrá recommended)
  • 1 clove fresh garlic, minced finely
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional toppings: fresh berries, chopped nuts, sprinkle of cinnamon

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup (90g) rolled oats, 1 tablespoon chia seeds, and a pinch of salt. Stir to mix evenly.
  2. Add 1 cup (240ml) milk and ½ cup (120g) Greek yogurt. Drizzle 2 tablespoons maple syrup and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract over the mixture.
  3. Whisk or fork stir gently but thoroughly until the mixture is creamy and slightly thick. Add a splash more milk if too dry.
  4. Transfer the oat mixture into a mason jar or airtight container. Seal tightly and refrigerate overnight or for at least 6 hours.
  5. About 10 minutes before serving, melt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add 1 finely minced garlic clove and a pinch of salt. Stir constantly for 2-3 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
  6. Remove from heat and let the garlic butter cool slightly until thickened but still pourable.
  7. Spoon the sticky overnight oats into bowls and drizzle the warm garlic butter generously over the top. Add optional toppings if desired.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy the contrast of cold creamy oats with warm savory garlic butter.

Notes

Finely mince garlic to avoid harsh bits. Keep heat low when melting butter to prevent burning. Stir in a splash of milk before serving if oats are too thick. Garlic butter drizzle can be made up to 2 days ahead and warmed gently before serving. For vegan version, use plant-based butter and yogurt.
