If mornings feel rushed, overnight oats give you one less thing to think about. Mix the oat base in the evening, refrigerate it, and finish it when you're ready to eat. Blue spirulina is an optional twist on that familiar breakfast.

Our pictures show AimGrow Blue Spirulina 50g. Follow the current package directions for its amount and preparation, rather than guessing from the colour in a photograph.

What goes into easy overnight oats?

For one small jar, a handy starting point is ½ cup of rolled oats and ½ cup of milk or your preferred plant drink. Add a spoonful of yogurt if you like a creamier texture. Use a clean container with room to stir.

These oat and liquid amounts are a flexible base, not a tested AimGrow recipe. Different oats and yogurt thicknesses absorb liquid differently, so expect to make small adjustments.

Should you add blue spirulina at night or in the morning?

For your first try, make the plain oat base overnight and stir the measured powder in the next morning, if that fits your product's directions. That lets you see the finished oat texture before changing anything else.

Mix the powder with a little of your recipe's liquid or yogurt before stirring it through the oats. Scrape around the bottom of the jar so you don't leave a dry pocket. Add fruit after the colour is evenly mixed.

Keep overnight oats in the fridge

Cover the plain base and refrigerate overnight, rather than leaving it on the kitchen counter. Quaker's overnight oats guide suggests a full eight hours in the fridge for the oats to absorb liquid. Follow the storage directions for your ingredients, too.

Start with one jar for the next morning instead of making a week's worth of an unfamiliar combination. You can adjust the next jar after you've tasted the first.

Too thick, too thin, or missing some crunch?

If the oats are thicker than you like, stir in a small splash of liquid. If they're too loose, use a little less liquid next time. Add banana slices or berries for flavour, and save granola for just before eating so it keeps its crunch.

That's all this make-ahead breakfast needs: a base you like, a little preparation, and room to adjust. You can check the current AimGrow Blue Spirulina label information here.
