Pistachio Overnight Oats
This recipe makes two servings of pistachio overnight oats. The oats soak in pistachio oat milk, and you add a yoghurt and pistachio spread topping. Just mix the oats, chia seeds, and yoghurt the night before, then add the topping and chopped nuts in the morning. There’s no cooking, just a few minutes of mixing before you put the jars in the fridge.

Why I Like this Recipe
I enjoyed these overnight oats and would make them again. The pistachio flavour stands out in both the oats and the topping, and mixing the spread with yoghurt makes it lighter. The chopped pistachios add a nice touch.
Tips and Variations
- Measure the chia seeds carefully. Adding extra will make the oats thicker.
- If the oats are too thick after chilling, stir in a splash of pistachio oat milk before adding the topping.
- You can use maple syrup instead of agave syrup.
- Add a pinch of ground cardamom to the oats for a mild spice.
- Toast the chopped pistachios in a dry pan, then let them cool before adding to your oats.
- For a chocolate twist, sprinkle some finely chopped dark chocolate over the topping.
Meal Storage
Keep the jars covered in the fridge at 5°C or colder and eat within 3 days, or sooner if your milk or yoghurt needs to be used up faster. Store the chopped pistachios separately and add them just before serving.
Freezer tips
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, you can. Use the same amount of plain oat milk or unsweetened almond milk.
They can be gluten-free if you use certified gluten-free oats and check that the pistachio oat milk and spread are suitable. I use Bunalun gluten-free rolled oats, but keep in mind that using gluten-free oats alone doesn’t guarantee the whole recipe is gluten-free.
Yes, you can use quick oats, but they’ll be softer and less textured. Rolled oats keep more texture after soaking.
Yes. Replace the yoghurt in both layers with a thick plant-based yoghurt and use a pistachio spread that’s dairy-free. Check the other ingredients as well.
Closing Note
These oats are great when you want a pistachio breakfast with little effort. The yoghurt topping and chopped nuts add extra texture. For a fruitier option, try raspberry and pistachio overnight oats.
