MUSH overnight oats prides itself on having less than 8 simple ingredients that are completely plant-based. Their vanilla almond flavor is made with almond milk, oats, dates, almonds, vanilla extract, sea salt, lemon juice, and cinnamon.
Their coffee coconut flavor includes coconut milk, rolled oats, dates, coffee concentrate, and sea salt. Although the MUSH recipe is 100% plant-based, they are made in a facility that processes other tree nuts, peanuts, milk, soy, wheat, eggs, and fish. This means that there is a risk for cross-contamination of allergens.
Based on the overnight oats label, their vanilla almond cups has a total of 230 calories per cup, 30 g of total carbohydrates, 7 g of protein, and 10 g of total fat.

How We Enjoyed It:
We served our MUSH overnight oats in a bowl and topped them with some of our favorite toppings – almonds, cinnamon, and fresh blueberries, accompanied with a fresh cup of coffee for a cozy breakfast at home. You can also top them off on your way out the door with a sliced banana, some almond butter, fresh berries, or chopped nuts or seeds.
