Blue Raspberry Overnight Oatmeal

Can I get a high five for two overnight recipes two Thursdays in a row?

I found while making this recipe that the color of raspberries is far more potent than the color of blueberries. On my first attempt, I was stunned to see the vibrant red color of my blueberry-raspberry mixture. However, after sitting in the fridge overnight, the oatmeal mellowed out into a calm blue (like in the pictures).

This recipe is super with a dollop of lemon curd. 🙂

Blue Raspberry Overnight Oatmeal

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Yield: serves 1

What you'll need:

  • 1/2 cup milk of choice
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/4 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1/2 tsp lemon juice (optional)
  • 1/4 cup quick cook steel-cut oats (I use Country Choice Organic)
  • 1 tsp chia seeds (optional)
  • pinch of salt

How to make it:

  1. Combine milk (I used almond milk), blueberries, raspberries, and lemon juice in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. (It might look red at first, but mine turned blue overnight.)
  2. Combine berry mixture and remaining ingredients in a mason jar.
  3. Cover with lid and shake, shake, shake until combined.
  4. Store in the refrigerator overnight (or for several hours). Eat cold or warm up in the microwave!
