Why you will love Raffaello Overnight Oats

Overnight oats are one of my favourite breakfasts to prepare as they are super easy, super customizable (so you can get super creative) meaning you will never get bored of them, and they are packed with benefits. Not only are they high protein so they are super satiating but they are also low calorie! Oats are one of the most healthiest grains as:

they are super high in the soluble fiber Beta-Glucan which helps to reduce blood sugar, increase satiation (feeling of fullness), and increase good bacteria in the digestive tract.
They are loaded with important vitamin and minerals, such as manganese, phosphorus, magnesium, copper, iron and zinc.
They are rich in antioxidants, including avenanthramides. Studies have shown that these polyphenol compounds can help reduce blood pressure and provide other benefits

FAQ AND PRODUCT RECOMMENDATIONS:

Im Gluten Intolerant, can I still have this?

Oats in its pure form are gluten free and in many countries are safe for coeliacs to consume. Unfortunately if you live in Australia, under the Food Standards Australia & New Zealand (FSANZ) Code, oats and their products are not permitted in foods labelled ‘gluten-free’. This is because of the way oats are processed in Australia, as they are often processed with gluten based grains, meaning they are contaminated with gluten. An alternative is to recreate my Creamy Biscoff Overnight Weet-Bix but replacing the weet-bix with gluten free weet-bix, and swapping out the biscoff for jam, yogurt and funfetti sprinkles. Additionally, you can replace the oats with brown rice flakes or even quinoa flakes.

What kind of yogurt should I use?

I always recommend a higher protein option, the one I use is Yopro High Protein Vanilla Greek yogurt, but I would also recommend Chobani or even Chobani Fit for extra added protein.

How long do my overnight oats need to sit?

I recommend refrigerating it for at least 8 hours before eating.

What protein powder do you recommend?

My favourite protein powder brand is MacroMike, use my code amb-eliyaeats to save 10% (I am a proud MacroMike Ambassador!) The flavour I use in this particular recipe is Caramelised White Chocolate Premium Protein but vanilla also works super well in this recipe!

What can I use instead of protein powder?

You can sub the protein powder for extra oats, or just omit completely and use slightly less liquid.

What zero calorie sweetener do you recommend?

My go to is Natvia, an Australian brand, ive been using it for years and it is my absolute go to. However you could use any natural sweetener, such as; Lakanto Monkfruit (also I brand I use frequently), or even just plain old Stevia. Feel free to use ANY sweetener you like, normal white sugar, brown sugar, honey, maple syrup etc. Or feel free to omit the sweetener completely if you don’t like your oats too sweet.

What White Chocolate do you recommend?

I love using Cadbury’s white chocolate, and my runner up has to be Lindt white chocolate, I love their excellence white chocolate, or just their plain white chocolate (super creamy and melts amazingly).

If you are vegan, you can use dairy free white chocolate. Some good brands include: Pascha, Enjoy Life, or Sweet William.

If you prefer to use sugar free chocolate, some good brands include: Sugarless Confectionery, Lily’s, Vitawerx (bonus for extra protein) & noshu (my personal fave).
