Baklava Overnight Oats

Baklava Overnight Oats are not only healthy but also feel like a special treat. This easy recipe mimics a traditional dessert favored in Turkey, Greece, and the Middle East. Naturally sweetened with maple syrup, these oats contain no gluten, soy, or dairy. This make-ahead recipe is packed with protein and fiber, making it a fantastic choice for breakfast.

Start with the baklava nut mixture. Chop the nuts and toss them with almond flour, cinnamon, fresh lime zest, a pinch of salt, and maple syrup. Next, heat up the milk. I use homemade almond milk for this recipe, but feel free to use your choice of dairy-free milk. Combine the old-fashioned oats with chia seeds, lime zest, maple syrup, vanilla, a few tablespoons of dairy-free yogurt, and most of the heated milk. Add in ¼ of the baklava nut mixture and stir to combine. Set aside for a while. Then divide the oats between two jars. Top with the remaining nut mixture. Cover and transfer to the fridge for at least 3 hours or overnight. To serve, top the oats with banana or berries if you wish. The recipe makes 2 servings, but you can easily scale it up if you need to.

Steps to make Baklava Overnight Oats

1	Make baklava nut mixture: Chop nuts	2
In a food processor or using a knife, coarsely chop 2 tablespoons raw pistachios and 1 tablespoon walnuts and add to a mixing bowl.
2	Add dry ingredients and maple syrup	2
Add in 1 tablespoon almond flour, ⅛ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon lime zest and mix to combine. Add in 1 tablespoon maple syrup and stir to make a slightly sticky mixture. Set aside.
3	Make oat mixture: Heat milk	2
Heat 1 cup dairy-free milk until hot.
4	Combine ingredients	2
In a large bowl, add 1 ¼ cup old-fashioned oats, 1 tablespoon chia seeds, ¼ teaspoon lime zest, 1 tablespoon or more maple syrup, ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 tablespoons dairy-free yogurt, and ¾ cup of the heated dairy-free milk. Mix until well combined.
5	Fold in nut mixture	2
Fold in ¼ of the baklava nut mixture and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes for the oats to thicken. If the oat mixture is too thick, add a little more milk, 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time.
6	Refrigerate
Divide the oat mixture between two mason jars. Top with the remaining nut mixture. Add some sliced fruits of choice and transfer to the fridge. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight
