Cold Brew Coffee Overnight Protein Oatmeal
I know I teased you with this Cold Brew Coffee Overnight Proats recipe last week on Instagram…. ooooops! Are we still friends? I just had to share because I can’t shake how happy I am in the morning when I get to eat my coffee and oatmeal all in one bowl.
Okay, let’s be honest. I still drink my coffee too. But double coffee 🙂 🙂 🙂 Oh yea, I knew we are still besties.
This recipe is super easy to meal prep (which I L O V E)… because I don’t always have the energy to cook and clean right when I wake up. #priorities. Y’all with me? Making these babies the night or weekend before is soooo my style. Cold Brew Coffee Overnight Protein Oatmeal to greet me in the fridge (after I’ve brewed my coffee)… now that’s a breakfast of champions right there.
I know how much y’all love your overnight oats and protein shakes laced with coffee so I decided to do a mash up and this recipe for proats was born! Can I get an amen?
Hope you’re week is off to a great start! If you like coffee recipes be sure to hit REPLY to this email or leave a COMMENT below 🙂

What’s the best protein powder to use? I’ve never used it before and am just becoming a vegan 🙂
This breakfast sounds delish!! I love that it’s coffe and filling oats all in one. I’m thinking I might even have to have this as afternoon snack too with chocolate protein powder instead of the vanila.
What a wonderful flavor for overnight oats! This is definitely a must make! Waking up to this would be ahhmazing!
I am making this immediately this week! I love coffee flavored everything 🙂
Simple and delicious one of my favorites, especially as the days warm up and things get busier. I haven’t made them in a while but I’m craving them now, might be breakfast tomorrow!
I am so in love with the idea of coffee in my overnight oats! Genius! I must try this very soon!
Coffee + high protein breakky in one is a busy girl’s dream breakfast! Plus, they’re made the night before! SCORE 🙂
Pretty genius idea, can’t wait to give it a try. Love your photos, too…so pretty!
I’m totally addicted to both overnight oats and cold brew coffee. LOVE this idea!
These are all of my favorite things in one! Yum! This is definitely going on my must make list!

One of my favorite breakfast recipes is mocha overnight oats. This sounds so good 🙂
Love how simple this is. Also love that it’s caffeinated – a morning requirement in my book!
