Silan-Sweetened Gingerbread Overnight Oats

Easy overnight oats with gingerbread spices and naturally sweetened with dates! Perfect for a festive breakfast on the go.

Silan-Sweetened Gingerbread Overnight Oats

Hey, you.

Are you enjoying the most wonderful time of the year?

Currently, my annual snowmen Christmas card box is sitting on our dining room table, glittery and unopened.

All 40 of them.

If you’re feeling a bit behind on the holiday hustle, I’m right there with you, sprinting from holiday parties to cookie exchanges to white elephants while listening to Michael Bublé and Mariah Carey on repeat; my active anthem to the season.

With Christmas roughly two weeks away, I’m also finding ways to stuff a little festive flair into everything, including my overnight oats.

These Silan-Sweetened Gingerbread Overnight Oats are just want you need to make your breakfast this season simple and sweet.

Silan-Sweetened Gingerbread Overnight Oats

Goal: I want to get back to my meal-prepping self come January.

You might think that since I have a food blog that means I have it all figured out in the kitchen, but that couldn’t be further from the truth.

In fact, I would place money on your fridge and kitchen looking a whole lot tidier than mine does right now.

Mine, with the constant arc of drying dishes looming over the counter, ingredients strewn across the counter, and dog-eared cookbooks propped open in disarray.

Since we’re being honest, when I was mixing up this easy recipe, for a small second self doubt crept in and I thought, does the blog really need another seasonal ONO variation?

Then I tasted them the next morning and thought, but of course, of course you do.

Silan-Sweetened Gingerbread Overnight Oats

Do you like Gingerbread?

I took my basic overnight oats template and added the perfect combination of dried fruit, nuts, and spices to achieve the sweet spicy gingerbread taste in oat form.

While recipe testing, I took a giant spoon of the stuff and waved it under Dan’s nose aggressively, demanding, “Doesn’t this smell like gingerbread?!”

He readily agreed, but then I didn’t give him much of an option not too.

It tastes like gingerbread too, friends!

I used the classic mix of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves for spices.

PSA: If you hate cloves like I sometimes do, feel free to leave them out!

For the fruit and nut blend, I like a mix of raisins and pecans, but dates, walnuts, or almonds would be fantastic here, too.

Silan-Sweetened Gingerbread Overnight Oats

Now, here’s where things get interesting.

Instead of using molasses to sweeten these oats, I used Soom Foods Silan.

Have you ever tried Silan?

This all-natural one-ingredient date syrup is made from 100% steamed and pressed dates. It’s silky sweet and light with a smooth finish and a fabulous pour.

I love it use it as a fun lower-sugar alternative to refined sugars and it works perfectly to lightly sweeten these oats without any refined sugar!

Soom Silan is gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, vegan, and paleo, so your whole family can use it as a sweetener substitute for any situation.

It’s also loaded with essential nutrients like  magnesium, potassium, manganese, copper, iron, fiber, Vitamins A, B, C, and D.

WHO KNEW.

Silan-Sweetened Gingerbread Overnight Oats

Enjoy these Silan-Sweetened Gingerbread Overnight Oats this season whenever you’re short on time but tall on holiday cheer.

Mix them up the night before for a sweet breakfast that is naturally sweet and refined sugar free.

If you can’t find silan, try subbing molasses, maple syrup, or coconut sugar instead for a similar flavor.

Double or triple the recipe to make several jars for the week because it keeps well for several days in the fridge!

Add a splash of almond milk to reach your desired consistency before serving.

I like mine with a big spoonful of neutral nut butter, like cashew, almond, or sunflower seed butter.

Granola is always a good idea too for some extra crunch.

Enjoy!

    Yaaay‼️ Had my first one this morning. This is def a keeper🥰. I didn’t have the Silan date syrup you used, so used maple syrup. I prefer golden raisins, and used them with the pecans. This is a step up from my chia seed pudding. Lots more goodies👅. Thx, Lauren👏🏻👏🏻

Pizza date night tonight? 🙋‍♀️This VEGGIE Pizza date night tonight? 🙋‍♀️This VEGGIE LOVER’S FLATBREAD PIZZA is new on the blog today! 🍕In the post I share how M and I have never been on a *real* date and how we make up for that by doing dinner date-night ins. One of our favorite things to make together lately is homemade plant-based pizza! 😄 This vegan and grain-free pizza is made easily with @bobsredmill NEW Grain-Free Flatbread Mix! I love this new flatbread mix, guys!!! You can make it vegan easily with a flax egg. Bake it up then add pizza sauce, vegan cheese, and your fav toppings for a fun plant-based pizza night in! ☺️
-
You can make the recipe into one large pizza or two smaller personal pizzas (which is what we typically do so we can go wild with our own toppings). I went traditional veggie lover’s with mine but you can add any toppings that sound good. I’m a huge pineapple pizza lover whereas M thinks pineapple doesn’t belong on pizza. 🤣 Grab the full recipe via the link in my profile and let me know what you think!
