Indian Masala Chai-Spiced Overnight Oatmeal

December 22, 2020

Indian Masala Chai-Spiced Overnight OatmealThis post may contain affiliate links. Please see my disclosure policy. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

This Masala Chai-Spiced Overnight Oatmeal tastes just like a creamy bowl of authentic Indian chai latte! Made with old-fashioned rolled oats, black tea, milk, cinnamon, ginger, vanilla, and cardamom, this overnight oatmeal is perfectly sweet and spicy. It can also be served warm or cold – delicious both ways! Naturally gluten-free, and can easily be made dairy-free and vegetarian too!

If you’ve never had overnight oatmeal before, they’re arguably the easiest method to make oatmeal! After all, it’s a no-cook, set-it-and-forget-it approach. Instead of cooking oatmeal by heating it up in the microwave or using the stovetop, you pour some milk into a jar of raw oats and let it soak overnight. Typically, the oats will have absorbed the liquid within 3 hours (though preferably overnight), at which point the oats are softened and ready to be eaten!
