Overnight oats are a simple, no cook way to enjoy oats. Instead of heating them, the oats are soaked in milk or a dairy free alternative and left in the fridge overnight. By morning, they’ve softened into a creamy, ready to eat breakfast, perfect for busy mornings at home or on the go.

When whole oats are soaked overnight, they naturally produce oat gum, a source of the fibre beta-glucans. This soluble fibre forms a gel like texture during digestion and plays a role in normal gut motility. Beta-glucans have also been associated with supporting normal cholesterol levels and contributing to the growth of beneficial bacteria in the digestive system, as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.

Transforming your morning routine is as easy as pouring 160ml of milk or your favourite milk substitute into our convenient pouch, giving it a quick shake or stir, and letting it chill overnight. By the time you wake up, your delicious overnight oats will be ready and waiting for you. Simply give it another shake or stir, and you're ready to take your breakfast on-the-go!

For those who prefer to use a jar or container, transferring the contents of the pouch is effortless. Just pour, add your milk, give it a stir, and let it chill overnight. When morning comes, a quick stir and the addition of your favourite toppings turn this into a delightful oat experience. While we recommend soaking overnight for optimal flavour and texture, if you're pressed for time, even just two hours of chilling can yield satisfying results.

Yes! Any milk or milk alternative works. Keep in mind that milk alternatives are often sweetened, which will affect the overall taste. We prefer unsweetened almond milk!

We love Oatco oats cold, with a delicious creamy texture and outstanding nutritional value but they will also taste great heated up.

For the ready to eat pots pour the base into a microwave safe container or bowl and heat the product in brief increments until it is heated to your liking. Pour your toppings on top and dig in or why not add your own fresh fruit to compliment the flavour.

For the superfuel pouches, after prepping, let chill overnight then empty the contents into a microwaveable container. Microwave for brief increments until it is heated to your liking and enjoy. Feel free to add your own toppings on top for extra indulgence. Looking for topping inspiration we have lots of creations on our blog.

The dry product has a shelf life of 6 months. We recommend consuming them within 36 hours of putting them in the fridge for the best experience. If you don't consume an entire serving and plan on eating it later, make sure to put it back in the fridge with the pouch resealed or in an airtight container.

Our Oatco superfuel overnight oat pouches are high in protein and a good source of fibre to help fill you up and fuel your day. Oats can be an excellent addition to a weight loss diet for several reasons:

-High in Fibre: Oats are rich in soluble fibre, which helps you feel full for longer periods, reducing the likelihood of overeating.

-Low in Calories: Oats are relatively low in calories compared to many other breakfast options, making them a great choice for those looking to manage their calorie intake.

-Slow Digestion: The complex carbohydrates in oats are digested slowly, providing a steady release of energy and helping to stabilize blood sugar levels, which can curb cravings and prevent snacking.

-Nutrient Dense: Oats are packed with essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, providing your body with the nourishment it needs while on a calorie-controlled diet.

Incorporating oats into your diet as part of a balanced and calorie-controlled eating plan can support weight loss efforts, but it's essential to consider overall dietary habits and lifestyle factors for long-term success.
