- 50 g ( ½ cup ) jumbo porridge oats substitute for GF if required
- 2 tablespoon biscoff spread
- 2 teaspoon chia seeds
- 160 ml (⅔ cup ) milk plant based or regular
- 1 lotus biscoff biscuit crumbled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
- 1 scoop vegan vanilla protein powder optional
Instructions
- Place the oats in a bowl and add the dairy free milk.

- Take the chilled oats from the fridge - adding a little more milk if you prefer the texture a little wetter. Sprinkle with crushed lotus biscuits and tuck in!
Notes
Chia Seed Substitutions - You can replace the chia seeds with a spoonful of vanilla flavour protein powder or large tablespoon of plain yoghurt. Greek, soya or coconut yoghurt work well.
How Can I Make This Allergy-Friendly?
Make It Dairy-Free: Use a dairy-free/plant based milk. If you want to add the optional protein powder, you will need to use a vegan version.
Make It Gluten-Free: Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a shop-bought Biscoff spread, HOWEVER, if you are willing to make your own, there is a great gluten-free biscoff spread recipe here. Be sure to use gluten-free oats too.
Make It Soya-Free: That pesky soya sneaks in everywhere doesn’t it, even in Biscoff spread, so you will need to make your own spread as per the gluten-free section above.
Lauren’s Tips
- Prep in batches: Overnight oats keep well in the fridge for up to 3 days, so you can make a few portions at once for easy breakfasts throughout the week!
- Use Rolled Oats For The Best Texture: Rolled oats hold up well overnight and will give the oats a creamy texture. Quick oats can work, but they tend to turn mushy, and steel-cut oats won’t soften enough for this recipe.
- Warm The Spread: You may like to warm the Biscoff spread in the microwave for 10 or so seconds before stirring into the oats to soften it a little, making it easier to stir in.
- Leave Overnight: Although the oats will be ready after 4 hours, do try to leave them overnight if you can. This will really give them time to soak into the milk and create a more creamy texture.
