✔️ What Is Overnight Weetabix?

Overnight Weetbix, or Weetabix, originated as a TikTok food trend! Essentially, it is taking Weetabix breakfast cereal, soaking it in milk overnight (similar to overnight oats), and layering it with fun toppings like yogurt, fresh fruit, sweet mix-ins, etc.

Weetabix is a classic cereal that comes in a larger biscuit form. So, similar to oats, when mixed with milk, it will begin to soften and can be broken apart into bite size pieces. The main difference is that with when making Weetabix overnight, you only need to soak the Weetabix and milk, but then the rest of the toppings can be layered on top, vs. mixed in as you would with overnight oats. It’s a great healthy breakfast option for busy mornings, as Weetabix cereal is a good source of whole grains, is high in fiber, and contains 4 grams of protein per serving!

🥘 Ingredients

Made with simple ingredients, this overnight Weetabix with yogurt and milk comes together quickly and easily! See the recipe card at the bottom of the page for the exact measurements.

• Weetabix Biscuits: Crushed Weetabix is the base for this nutritious breakfast.
• Milk: Milk and Weetabix go hand in hand! Cow’s milk is most commonly paired with Weetabix cereal, but you could use plant based milk in this recipe too.
• Maple Syrup: Maple syrup will add the best touch of sweetness to your Weetabix base without loading up on refined sugars.
• Banana: Banana is the perfect topping for these Weetabix overnight oats! It is creamy, sweet, and layers well.
• Greek Yogurt: Greek yogurt is a high protein source! You can use vanilla yogurt or plain yogurt – both work well with this topping combo and adds a nice creamy texture.
• Biscoff Spread & Biscoff Cookie Crumble: Adding in Biscoff spread and cookies takes this breakfast to a whole new level! 

🍲 Ingredient Substitutions

• Weetbix: If you’d rather, you can swap the Weetabix for oats to make a classic overnight oats recipe! Chia seeds would also be a good choice if you like chia pudding.
• Milk: Any type of milk will work for this overnight Weetabix recipe. Whole milk, low fat milk, non fat milk, or a plant based milk like oat milk, or almond milk would all be a good option.
• Sugar: Maple syrup can be substituted for honey, agave syrup, or coconut sugar.
• Fruit: Banana goes well with the flavors in this Weetabix overnight oats recipe, but other fruits work too. Try fresh fruit like berries or peaches.
• Yogurt: Regular yogurt or non-dairy yogurt work for this recipe too! 
• Biscoff Spread: If you do not have Biscoff spread on hand, you can use any nut butter to add some flavor. This would be an even healthier option!

💭 Expert Tips

• Avoid Mess: You can crush the Weetabix biscuits in a zipped plastic bag to avoid any mess from crumbs. Alternatively, you can crush the biscuits once they have been combined with the milk, in the container itself.
• If You Can’t Refrigerate Overnight, let this sit for at least 2-3 hours in the fridge before serving so the flavors can combine and the base can set.
• Double Or Triple Batch: Since this breakfast Weetabix will keep for 2-3 days, you can double or triple the recipe to make more servings for a quick and easy make ahead breakfast.

📖 Flavor Variations

1. Tropical: Mix fruit such as mango, papaya and kiwi into the Greek yogurt instead of the Biscoff spread. Top with passion fruit mixed into coconut yogurt instead of the crushed cookies.
2. Chocolate: Mix cocoa powder into yogurt and top the Weetabix base. Then make a chocolate layer with chocolate nutella (or try this vegan Nutella). Top with chocolate chips or crumbled chocolate cookies.
3. Peanut Butter And Banana: Drizzle peanut butter into the yogurt layer, sweeten with maple syrup and top with a layer of sliced banana and peanut butter granola.
4. Mixed Berries: Replace the bananas with a layer of mixed frozen or fresh berries for your overnight Weetbix.
5. Cinnamon: Stir ¼ tsp cinnamon through the Greek yogurt and top the Weetabix base.
6. Oreo Cookie: Crush Oreo cookies and mix through yogurt and finish with a top layer of more crushed cookies and mini chocolate chips.
7. Overnight Protein Weetabix: Add a scoop of vanilla protein powder to the Greek yogurt and spread in an even layer over the Weetabix base. Top with your favorite berries! Add a bit of vanilla extract for extra vanilla flavor.

🙌 Dietary Adaptations

This healthy Weetabix recipe can be easily adapted to meet dietary needs. Here are a couple alternatives that you may enjoy:

Vegan Option: To make this into a dairy free, vegan overnight Weetabix recipe, try using plant-based alternatives like coconut yogurt and unsweetened almond milk instead of Greek yogurt and cow’s milk.

Lower Sugar Option: If you prefer to make a low sugar overnight Weetabix, omit the maple syrup, Biscoff cookies, and use your favorite nut butter instead of the Biscoff spread. While the maple syrup is a natural sweetener that is considered to be an unrefined sugar, it could still spike your blood sugar and you may prefer to leave it out.

Gluten-Free Option: For a gluten-free version, replace the Weetbix with oats, use peanut butter instead of the Biscoff spread, and use a gluten free cookie option for the crumble topping.

🫙 Storage Directions

To Store In The Fridge: You may store these Weetabix overnight oats in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Keep toppings separate for the best texture and freshness and add right before consuming. I don’t recommend freezing this recipe as the texture will completely change when defrosted.
