This White Chocolate, Lemon and Raspberry Overnight Oats is a gluten free well-balanced, healthy breakfast that feels like dessert.
I’m an oatmeal lover. I’ve found ways to sneak egg whites in for protein, and turn it into crème brulee. But with the summer heading our way, I am all about overnight oats. How else can you justify getting your fibre-party on in the sweltering heat?
In the past, my yummy Cherry Cobbler overnight oats have been our go-to, but lately I am all about these Gluten Free White Chocolate, Lemon and Raspberry Overnight Oats. Rich, sweet, creamy and decadent, these are the overnight oats you want to wake up to.
How to Make Gluten Free White Chocolate, Lemon and Raspberry Overnight Oats
Making overnight oats is crazy simple. There’s a reason why I like to demo overnight oats for TV segments – it’s as easy as dump, stir and forget it. Perfect food television right there!! It’s a fairly versatile and simple combination of rolled oats (gluten free, if needed), and some kind of milk to soften them up. I like to add chia seeds for extra thickness, protein, fibre and healthy fats, and greek yogurt for an extra dose of protein.
Then we add flavour! My overnight oats combines some of my all-time favourite flavours – sweet and creamy white chocolate, zesty lemon and tangy raspberries, but feel free to switch things up and add in whatever you’ve got on hand.
What are some of your favourite overnight oats flavours?

I grew up on a potato farm in New Brunswick and thought I should mention that your blog might lead someone to think growing their own potatoes could be easily done from store bought potatoes ( but it can’t because most are sprayed with ‘bud nip’ to keep them from sprouting.) To get the best results for garden potatoes it would be ideal to buy certified, disease free seed from a Canadian potato farmer specializing in seed potatoes.
Thank you for spreading the news about the health benefits of the lowly, woefully maligned potato. They deserve a great blog like yours!
Esther says
OMG, that looks AMAZING Abby!
I def need to make this when I am back from my vacation!

Hey Abbey. Glad you could come visit our farm. Great Post about potatoes. Yes farming is a crazy life with long hours. Luckily the 15hr days are only in the spring and fall.
Deborah @ Confessions of a mother runner says
What a treat that would be for breakfast!
Barbara says
Can I heat the oats up? I’m not a fan of cold oatmeal in the morning. Also instead of honey can I use maple syrup? Or coconut sugar? I’m not a huge fan of honey.
Abbey Sharp says
Yes absolutely! You can warm up and modify whatever you want to use for sweetness
Jenny Shea Rawn says
These recipes are so fun! Love that you used beer in the panzanella vinaigrette … YUM.
Stacey Mattinson says
I haven’t heard of granita before, but I think I need in. Sounds so refreshing for summer!
Stacey Mattinson says
Awesome! Dietitians are the bridge between agriculture and the consumer!! Thanks for sharing – had no idea about growing your own potatoes!
Ilka says
I love this article! These days people have become phobic of potatoes, meanwhile they are such a nutritious vegetable, filled with quality starches and potassium, especially great for us runners!!
Abbey Sharp says
Yeah! I love my potatoes!
Jenny Shea Rawn says
Love my potatoes! We are growing them in our garden, so have an extra place in my heart for them. Hate how they’ve gotten a bad rap, but people are coming around! What a cool experience to learn ALL about the spud. Who knew there were so many varieties?
Abbey Sharp says
Hey Jenny, that’s awesome that you have access to such fresh potatoes! So many varieties, it’s crazy!
