A quick and easy overnight oats recipe combining creamy banana bread flavor with a bold espresso crumble topping, perfect for a cozy and energizing breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup (45g) old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 medium ripe banana, mashed
  • ¾ cup (180ml) milk of choice (almond, oat, or dairy milk, unsweetened preferred)
  • ¼ cup (60g) Greek yogurt, plain or vanilla
  • 2 tablespoons (30ml) espresso or strong brewed coffee
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) maple syrup or honey (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • Pinch of salt
  • For the Espresso Crumble Topping:
  • 1 tablespoon ground espresso beans
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • Pinch of cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  1. Mash the banana in a medium bowl with a fork until smooth but still slightly chunky, about 2 minutes.
  2. Add milk, Greek yogurt, brewed espresso or coffee, maple syrup or honey (if using), cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt to the mashed banana. Whisk gently until well combined, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Stir in rolled oats and chia seeds until fully coated and evenly distributed.
  4. Divide the mixture evenly into two 12-ounce (350ml) mason jars or airtight containers. Seal tightly and refrigerate overnight or for at least 6 hours.
  5. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a small bowl, combine ground espresso, brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon if using. Add cold cubed butter and rub with fingers or fork until coarse crumbs form.
  6. Spread crumble in a thin layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden and crisp, stirring halfway through. Remove and cool completely.
  7. Before serving, sprinkle a generous layer of espresso crumble on top of each jar of oats. Enjoy chilled or let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes for a softer texture.

Notes

Use rolled oats for best texture; steel-cut oats require longer soaking. Cold butter is essential for a crisp crumble. Adjust coffee amount to taste. Add milk in the morning if oats are too thick. Espresso crumble can be made in advance and stored up to a week.
