Ladies (and gents), let me tell you about a breakfast that’ll make you want to jump out of bed in the morning – and trust me, I’m NOT a morning person! This Blueberry-Banana Overnight Oats with Honey-Roasted Almonds is literally what breakfast dreams are made of.
Y’all, this isn’t just any regular breakfast – it’s a symphony of flavors that’ll have you feeling like you’re eating dessert for breakfast (but it’s totally healthy, so no guilt here! 😉).
What You’ll Need:
– 1 cup rolled oats (not instant, honey!)
– 1 cup almond milk (or any milk that makes your heart happy)
– 1 ripe banana, mashed
– 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
– 1 tablespoon chia seeds
– 1 tablespoon honey
– 1/4 cup almonds
– A pinch of cinnamon
– A splash of vanilla extract
– Optional: A sprinkle of love (okay, I’m being extra, but you get it!)
Now, let me walk you through this life-changing breakfast situation:
1. First things first, let’s make those honey-roasted almonds. Toss your almonds with a teaspoon of honey and pop them in the oven at 350°F for 8-10 minutes. Watch them like a hawk – nobody likes burnt nuts! Let them cool and get all crispy.
1. In a cute mason jar (because we’re fancy like that), mix your oats, chia seeds, and cinnamon.
1. Add your mashed banana (the riper, the better – trust your girl on this one), milk, remaining honey, and vanilla. Give it a good stir until everything’s getting cozy together.
1. Layer in those beautiful blueberries. Don’t you dare skip this step – they burst overnight and create this gorgeous purple swirl that’s totally Instagram-worthy!

1. Pop that jar in the fridge overnight (or at least 6 hours if you’re impatient like me).
1. In the morning, top with your honey-roasted almonds and any extra blueberries you haven’t snacked on yet.
The result? A creamy, dreamy breakfast that’s packed with protein, fiber, and enough yumminess to make you forget about hitting that snooze button!
Real talk: This recipe has saved my mornings more times than I can count. It’s perfect for busy boss babes who need a grab-and-go breakfast that doesn’t sacrifice taste or nutrition. Plus, it’s totally customizable – swap out the fruits, try different nuts, or add a dollop of nut butter if you’re feeling extra!
