DELICIOUS PUMPKIN-CINNAMON BUN OVERNIGHT OATS RECIPE

Overnight oats are one of those food trends that makes me so happy! They are extremely good for you and will boost your metabolism right at the start of the day. Good bye inches, hello delicious breakfast!!!

Unlike some food trends (sorry Starbucks, but I love using your fraps as an example), there are those that are just as healthy as they are delicious. Overnight oats have been a personal favorite of mine, as they are extremely easy to make and provide a couple of extra health benefits than their cooked counterpart.

Everyone knows that oatmeal can reduce the risk of heart disease and lower cholesterol. It is also packed with fiber, protein and resistant starch. Resistant starch is a cool form of a carbohydrate that nourishes the healthy gut bacteria, help you feel fuller for longer, boost your immunity and help you burn fat.

In fact, studies suggest that replacing just 5% of your total carbohydrates with resistant starch can boost your post meal fat burning process by 30%!

The soaking process of overnight oats breaks down the phytic acid, an ANTI-nutrient that prevents the digestion of oats. This helps you digest your overnight oats much better than the cooked version and increases the absorption of the healthy nutrients from your meal.

Enjoy this delicious overnight oats recipe!

Many people make overnight oats in a mason jar (perhaps this makes them taste better?), so you might want to pick one up. If not, then any food container will do just fine.
