A quick and easy overnight oats recipe combining fresh apricots, almond milk, collagen powder, and sliced almonds for a nutritious and delicious breakfast that supports skin and joint health.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (45g) rolled oats (old-fashioned)
  • 1 scoop (about 10g) collagen powder (unflavored or vanilla)
  • 3/4 cup (180ml) unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 medium fresh apricots, sliced
  • 2 tbsp (15g) sliced almonds
  • 3 tbsp (45g) Greek yogurt (or dairy-free coconut yogurt for vegan option)
  • 1 tbsp (20ml) honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp chia seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Combine dry ingredients: In a mixing bowl, stir together rolled oats, collagen powder, and chia seeds if using.
  2. Add wet ingredients: Pour in almond milk, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir gently but thoroughly until collagen dissolves.
  3. Slice apricots into thin wedges, setting aside a few slices for topping.
  4. Transfer and layer: Spoon half the oat mixture into a jar or container, add half the apricot slices, then top with remaining oats.
  5. Sprinkle sliced almonds on top and seal the jar with a lid.
  6. Refrigerate overnight for at least 6 hours.
  7. In the morning, stir the oats gently and add reserved apricot slices on top. Drizzle extra honey if desired before serving.

Notes

Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture. Layer apricots in the middle to prevent sogginess. Collagen powder blends best when mixed before refrigeration. Adjust almond milk in the morning if oats are too thick or thin. Chia seeds are optional and add fiber but may change texture. Recipe scales well for meal prep.
