Overnight Oats With Coconut, Dates, Almonds, and Honey

Overnight Oats with Coconut Dates Almonds and Honey
Alex Lau

The coconut-date mixture in this recipe gets better the longer it sits. If you can’t find fresh coconut, substitute the dried flakes.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    4 servings

Ingredients

¼ cup honey
2 tablespoons virgin coconut oil, melted
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
4 Medjool dates, pitted, chopped

¼ cup chopped coconut meat
Pinch of kosher salt
1 cup plain whole-milk Greek yogurt

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Stir honey, coconut oil, and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl or small measuring cup until smooth (if mixture looks broken, warm gently in a microwave and stir until smooth). Add dates, almonds, coconut, and salt and stir to combine.

    Step 2

    Divide oats and yogurt among bowls, spooning yogurt into centers. Top with coconut mixture.

    Step 3

    Do Ahead: Coconut mixture can be made 4 days ahead; cover and chill. Rewarm gently before serving.
