Chai Spiced Chia Overnight Oats

Chai Spiced Chia Overnight Oats are creamy overnight oats with almond milk, chia seeds, and plenty of warm chai spice flavor! They’re dairy-free, gluten-free and vegan and are the perfect grab-n-go breakfast!
And just like that, the holidays are over! Can you tell I’m happy about it? I am….I really am. 🙂
The holidays were very nice — don’t get me wrong. I’m just so happy to be able to get back into my regular routine again, especially on the eating front. While I didn’t go on a major cookie binge for the whole month of December like I normally do, I had more than my share of sweets, party food…you name it.
After seeing both of my overnight oat recipes in the Top 10 Recipes of 2015, I knew I had to start this year off with these Chai Spiced Overnight Oats.
I know how much I love overnight oats, and I’m so happy that you love them just as much!
Why you’ll love this overnight oats recipe:
- it’s healthy and satisfying
- the oats have a luscious, creamy texture
- overnight oats are extremely customizable for almost diet
- you can whip them up in about 5 minutes flat
- it’s the perfect grab-n-go breakfast!
It’s easy to tell why they’re such a hit, isn’t it?
I’ll admit, these sound like they’re too good to be true. For a non-morning person like me, a breakfast like this is the perfect thing. I love waking up knowing that a healthy breakfast is ready for me and all I have to do is make my coffee.
For these oats, just mix together your oats, chia seeds, spices, and brown sugar, and add your Almond Breeze Almondmilk. I’m not lactose intolerant, but I love the creaminess of the almond milk and the hint of almond flavor. It’s a must in these overnight oats!
Once everything is combined, cover the oats with plastic wrap, refrigerate overnight, and you’ll wake up to a delicious, healthy breakfast that’s going to stick with you all morning long.
The warm chai spice flavor will give you a nice, cozy feeling that you need on a cold winter morning. No, the oats aren’t warm themselves, but that’s no matter, especially when you’re probably enjoying it with a nice, hot cup of coffee or tea.
These Chai Overnight Oats are the perfect way to get your eating back on track after those crazy holidays without sacrificing flavor or feeling deprived.
There’s absolutely none of that here — only smiling, happy faces with a no-finger-lifting, delicious breakfast. 🙂

Hello!
Thank you for the great recipe! I make this a lot, it’s really wonderful. I use maple syrup instead of brown sugar. I love that I can portion it into jars for a quick grab and go breakfast or snack. Thanks again!
I’m so glad you love the oats Sherri, and I too prefer maple syrup as a sweetener now! Thanks so much for your review. 🙂
This was SOOOOOO yummy!!! It’s a family favorite now – thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the feedback — I appreciate it! 🙂
The recipe used to specify the amounts of each spice (rather than redirecting to another page to create a batch of the spice mix). Can you provide the amounts of each spice for the oats?
Hi Janine. I’m sorry about that, but since I created a recipe for the chai spice it made more sense to redirect it there. I would suggest making the small batch of chai spice as the recipe states as it keeps for up to 3 months, or look at that recipe to figure out the proportions of each spice for the oats.
How long can this stay in the refrigerator ? I am the only one who eats oats in my house. This would make 4 servings for me. Thanks. Sue
Hi Sue! These easily keep 5 days — I hope you enjoy them!
It looks so delicious..
A perfect healthy and tasty breakfast it is
Thank you very much!
I really like the idea, but i would not really call it healthy after adding 3 table spoons of sugar..
Could you divide the mixture into jars and chill that way? Does the mixture swell very much? Thank you for this recipe btw 🙂
Hello! I always chill the mixture then divide into jars. I hope you enjoy them!
I just recently came across this recipe. I regularly make overnight oats and I love Chai. It has been a little cooler here these past few weeks looking forward to this tasty treat in the morning. I did a taste test as I was transferring the mixture into individual mason jars yummy. Thank you for sharing and this is pinned.
I’m glad you’re happy with the flavor Lynda and thanks so much for taking the time to give me your feedback!
HI, I just wanted to thank you for the recipe and let you know it was bay far the best overnight oats style recipe I have tried. what a treat!
I’m so happy you enjoyed them, Marika, and I really appreciate the feedback! Thank you! ?
These sound delicious, I’ve just started getting into overnight oats and this will be a nice change. The jars you use are so cute as well, where could I find them at?
Thank you, Farah! I got these jars on Amazon in a small set of 4 — the brand is Weck. ?
Is there an actual recipe in here somewhere? I have scrolled (painfully slowly due to all the large photos) to try and find some measurements and list of ingredients, but alas I have been thwarted. Can you post the recipe in the comments?
Hi, Annie…the recipe is at the bottom of the post.
Thank you! And thanks for your quick reply. I was getting frustrated trying to find it. Can’t wait to try the recipes.
I’m sorry, Annie — I know the photos can really slow things down, especially on mobile devices. I hope you enjoy the recipe!
Thank you so much, Alaina! 🙂
