Coconut Cream Pie overnight Oats

Its April! And that means we have 2 months until summer-woo hoo!!  But, that means that we have 2 months of breakfasts and dinners to figure out-ugh! By this time everyone is tired of getting up and tired of the routine and is looking for something different.  I make my youngest son the same thing every morning- omelet with cheese, toast, berries and milk. He is SICK of that breakfast by April. So, I am shaking things up this week with a delicious Coconut Cream Pie Overnight Oats. I made a batch last night that will last all week and it was SO easy this morning when I stumbled downstairs to “make” breakfast.  I scooped out a bowlful of oats and topped it with fresh blueberries and breakfast was served!

It took me a few tries to get this recipe right, but there really is no “recipe”. Just adjust the amounts to what you prefer.  I used So Delicious Coconut Milk-it comes in a box and is either next to the milk or in the juice section of your grocery store, but you need to refrigerate it after you open it.  I tried to use the Organic Coconut Milk from Trader Joes (in a can), but it was too hard to get it to mix together (I kept getting the coconut fat separation from the milk-if you know how to fix this please shoot me a message). It definitely was more coconutty with the Trader Joe’s brand but it was not a creamy and was too rich for my blood, but if that is all you can find it is just fine.

I also used 2 Tablespoons of honey because I was making this for my family, but if that is too sweet by all means cut it down or out! Or if you don’t like honey then use maple syrup.
