This easy Thai Coffee Overnight Oats made with cold brew or regular coffee is a sweet treat. Perfect for on the go!
I remember the first time I tried Vietnamese coffee many years ago. It was at a local restaurant where I lived at the time.
The waiter brought a Vietnamese coffee maker which consisted of a drip filter sitting on top of a glass mug filled with sweetened condensed milk. The coffee was made in front of me while I watched with anticipation.
Upon tasting the delightful beverage, I was in heaven. It tasted a lot like Bailey's, which I have always been a big fan of.
Thai coffee is slightly similar, but with additional ingredients of grains and seeds. In America, many of the Thai restaurants make a simplified version.
My Mint Hot Chocolate Overnight Oats inspired this Vegan Thai Overnight Oats recipe. They are both sweet breakfasts.
If you've never made overnight oats, there's no time like the present! Overnight oats have been a game changer for me.
If I have somewhere to be early in the morning I make overnight oats the night before to save me time in the morning.
They're also perfect for traveling. I bring gluten free rolled oats, cacao powder, and a packet of almond butter in my luggage. Then, I add hot coffee for a hearty vegan oatmeal breakfast.
I love having my coffee and overnight oats all in one meal.

**Important!
If you are gluten free you may want to avoid coffee altogether. I personally have never had a problem drinking it, and I have a gluten intolerance. It is probably because I use whole bean organic coffee, and grind it myself.
I learned after posting my Vegan Bulletproof Coffee from some readers on Facebook that it can be problematic for people who don't tolerate gluten. So I did some research and one article mentioned to try organic whole bean coffee because it isn't highly processed causing cross-reactivity issues.
So please do the research yourself, and test it out. I try to only post recipes that are 100% gluten free since I have a gluten intolerance. I am really careful about avoiding gluten in my daily life, so this was all news to me.
