    Cinnamon Roll Overnight Oats

    Jump to Recipe Pin

    Inspired by the flavors of cinnamon rolls, this Cinnamon Roll Overnight Oats is sweet, rich, and creamy. Make it ahead for busy mornings. This takes just 5 minutes to prep before you go to bed!

    This Cinnamon Roll Overnight Oats is made with vegan yogurt, cinnamon, and brown sugar. Add water or soy milk. Either one tastes good.

    Soy milk adds an extra rich flavor, but since there's vegan yogurt, it is unnecessary.

    Overnight Oats are the perfect breakfast to meal prep for busy mornings. They're also great for on-the-go.

    I like to make them for the mornings when I am out and about.
