Lemon & poppy seed overnight oats
Ingredients
- 40g rolled oats
- 1 tablespoon of poppy seeds
- ½ tablespoon chia seeds
- 100ml reduced-fat milk
- 2 tablespoons Danone Skyr Natural Yogurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon spread
- 2 tablespoons Danone Skyr Natural Yogurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon spread
- ½ teaspoon poppy seeds
- 10g pistachios, coarsely chopped, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Step 1
To get started on your lemon and poppy seed overnight oats, grab a clean jar or container and toss in your rolled oats, poppy seeds, and chia seeds. Next, pour in your choice of milk—whether it’s dairy or a plant-based option—ensuring everything is well-coated. Then, take a generous spoonful of Danone Skyr Plain Yoghurt and dollop it on top, followed by a spoonful of zesty lemon curd. Now, give everything a good stir until all the ingredients are nicely blended together. You want to make sure the oats are thoroughly mixed with the milk and the yogurt, creating a creamy base. Once you’ve combined everything well, seal your jar or container and pop it in the fridge overnight, or at least for a few hours if you can’t wait! The longer it sits, the creamier and more flavorful it will become.
Step 2
When you’re ready to enjoy your lemon and poppy seed overnight oats, take them out of the fridge and give them a gentle stir to mix everything up. Now, grab a tablespoon of your favorite yogurt and dollop it on top of the oats, creating a lovely creamy layer. Next, drizzle some tangy lemon curd over the yogurt—this adds a delightful zing! For a bit of crunch and extra flavor, sprinkle a handful of poppy seeds and crushed pistachios on top. Step back for a moment to admire your creation before diving in!

My Tip
To enhance the lemon flavor in your overnight oats, zest the lemon before adding the curd. This will infuse the oats with a bright citrus aroma, making each bite even more refreshing and delicious!
Leftovers
To store your Lemon & Poppy Seed Overnight Oats, keep them in a sealed glass jar in the fridge for up to 3 days. When you're ready to enjoy, simply give them a good stir and add a splash of milk to loosen them up—no need to heat, as they’re delicious cold!
Make It Your Own
For a delightful twist, swap the lemon curd for a spoonful of almond butter and add a sprinkle of cinnamon. This will give your overnight oats a nutty flavor and a warm, comforting vibe!
