It’s no secret that I love oatmeal. This post has the self-proclaimed best oatmeal recipes on the Internet.
As the weather has started to get warmer, it seems more appropriate to turn to overnight oats instead of stovetop or baked oatmeal, even though I love a warm bowl of oatmeal!
I can’t get enough lemon flavor, so I decided to make this Lemon Raspberry Overnight Oats with Chia Seeds.
I am not normally a fan of the texture chia seeds lend (I can only handle chia seed pudding when it’s blended!) but when mixed with the oats this is still creamy and not slimy like chia seed pudding can be. You should definitely try your overnight oats with chia seeds!
If you have extra chia seeds, go ahead and make this Blueberry Chia Pudding–it’ll give you 16 grams of protein and 30 grams of fiber!
To sweeten this, I used a small amount of agave nectar. I like it for its neutral flavor and low glycemic index, but I know some people are against using it. You can sub honey, maple syrup, or even erythritol if you want no added sugar.

This is really good and easy to put together. I found it had a bit too much lemon for my taste, so I would reduce that next time. Otherwise, really good!
