These blueberry cottage cheese overnight oats take just 10 minutes to prepare and make four breakfast portions. As they chill, the oats and chia seeds thicken, while the blueberries add colour and a tangy taste to the mild cottage cheese. Maple syrup gives a touch of sweetness. Each serving is low in fat and has 27.3g of protein, all without protein powder.

Why I Like this Recipe

I like that you can use cottage cheese straight from the tub. The small curds go well with the oats, so you don’t have to make it totally smooth. Each serving has 27.3g of protein without any protein powder, and making everything in one bowl means less washing up.

Tips and Variations

  • If you want a smoother texture, blend the cottage cheese with the almond milk and maple syrup before mixing it with the oats.
  • You can use oat milk instead of almond milk, but keep in mind the nutritional values will be different.
  • Try using the same amount of raspberries or blackberries instead of blueberries. Just follow the same preparation tips for frozen berries mentioned above.
  • Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon for extra flavour.
  • If you like your breakfast less sweet, just use a bit less maple syrup.
  • Sprinkle some chopped almonds, pistachios, or pumpkin seeds on top just before serving.
  • Add a spoonful of Greek-style yoghurt for a creamier finish.

Meal Storage

Store the portions covered in the fridge at 0 to 5°C and eat them within 3 days, or sooner if your cottage cheese packaging says so. Stir before serving, since some liquid might separate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, you can use 280g of washed fresh blueberries. They don’t release as much juice, so the oats will look paler. If you want more blueberry flavour, lightly crush some of the berries before mixing them in.

Yes, but you will need less almond milk because the chia seeds absorb a considerable amount of liquid. Start with less milk and adjust after chilling.

I use Bunalun certified gluten-free rolled oats for this recipe. To make sure your oats are gluten-free, use certified gluten-free oats and check the labels on all the other ingredients.

Yes, you can. Quick oats will give you a softer, more even texture after soaking, while whole rolled oats keep more of their shape and bite overnight.

Closing Note

There’s not much to do in the morning when breakfast is already made. Just give the oats a stir, grab a spoon, and enjoy. If you like oats with cottage cheese, try my cinnamon apple version too.
