Hey there, breakfast lovers! 🌞 Let me share with you my absolute favorite morning recipe that’ll have you jumping out of bed with excitement. Trust me, this Blueberry-Banana Overnight Oats with Honey-Roasted Almonds is a total game-changer – and girl, it’s so Instagram-worthy!
I discovered this recipe during my busy workweek when I desperately needed something nutritious but was tired of my boring yogurt routine. Ladies (and gents!), this breakfast is packed with protein, healthy fats, and all the good stuff your body craves first thing in the morning.
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 1 cup rolled oats (not the instant kind, honey!)
– 1 ripe banana, mashed
– 1 cup almond milk (or any milk – I won’t judge 😉)
– 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
– 2 tablespoons chia seeds
– 1 tablespoon honey
– 1/4 cup almonds
– Pinch of cinnamon
– Dash of vanilla extract
Now, let’s make magic happen! First, let’s tackle those honey-roasted almonds because they’re literally to die for. Toss the almonds with a bit of honey and pop them in the oven at 350°F for about 8 minutes. Watch them like a hawk – nobody likes burnt nuts!
While those are getting toasty, mix your oats, mashed banana, milk, chia seeds, and vanilla in a mason jar. Give it a good stir – put some muscle into it, sister!

Layer in half the blueberries, give it another stir, and pop it in the fridge overnight. I know, I know – the waiting is the hardest part! But trust your girl, it’s worth it.
In the morning, top it with those gorgeous honey-roasted almonds, the remaining blueberries, a drizzle of honey, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Voilà! You’ve just made yourself a breakfast that’s not only nutritious but totally Pinterest-worthy.
The best part? This keeps you full until lunch, and it’s perfect for meal prep. Make a few jars on Sunday, and you’re set for the week! And can we talk about how customizable this is? Sometimes I swap blueberries for strawberries or add a dollop of almond butter when I’m feeling fancy.
