Maple Brown Sugar Overnight Oats (No Yogurt)

Maple Brown Sugar Overnight Oats without yogurt are a vegan cozy breakfast that tastes like dessert.

This easy, make-ahead no-cook oatmeal is creamy, packed with flavor from cinnamon, chia seeds, peanut butter, and maple syrup, and perfect for meal prep.

For more dessert-inspired oats, don't miss my banana cocoa overnight oats and cinnamon roll oats.

Maple brown sugar overnight oats are one of those quick breakfasts I never get tired of. Since starting my plant-based journey, I've created so many easy overnight oat variations like quinoa overnight oats, oatmeal with dates, carrot cake overnight oats, and flax seed overnight oats, and this one truly feels like a treat.

With its creamy texture, warm cinnamon flavor, and sweet notes of maple syrup and brown sugar, it's pure comfort in a jar.

I love that I can prep them in minutes, let them chill overnight, and wake up to a cozy, nourishing breakfast that keeps me full and satisfied for hours. It's the perfect way to start the day with something wholesome yet indulgent.

🥘Ingredients

• Rolled oats: Use old-fashioned rolled oats for the best texture. Quick oats work too, but they will make it softer and mushier.
• Brown sugar: Light or dark brown sugar both work.
• Pure maple syrup: Go for pure maple syrup for that rich, natural sweetness.
• Chia seeds: They thicken the oats and add fiber and a creamy, pudding-like texture.
• Peanut butter: I use unsweetened peanut butter, but almond or cashew butter is great too.
• Cinnamon: Adds cozy warmth and ties all the flavors together.
• Plant-based milk: I use unsweetened almond milk, but soy, coconut, or oat milk works just as well.
• Salt: A tiny pinch enhances the flavor and balances the sweetness.

As always, you can find the full recipe with a list of ingredients with measurements in a printable recipe card at the end of this post.

🥄How To Make Maple Brown Sugar Overnight Oats

Mix dry ingredients: In a jar or bowl, combine the rolled oats, brown sugar, chia seeds, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.

Add the wet ingredients: Stir in the almond milk, peanut butter, and maple syrup until well combined.

Chill: Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for a creamier texture. Top with sliced banana and a dash of cinnamon before serving.

📋Variations

• Sweeteners: Swap brown sugar for coconut sugar, maple sugar, or a touch of agave syrup.
• Nut butter: Unsweetened peanut butter works great, but almond, cashew, or sunflower seed butter are delicious alternatives.
• Chia seed alternative: You can swap chia seeds for ground flaxseed or hemp seeds.
• Protein boost: Add a scoop of your favorite plant-based protein powder to make these oats even more filling.
• Chocolate variation: Add 1 teaspoon cocoa powder for a rich, chocolaty twist.
