Let me guess, you love kiwi but you don't know what to do with them apart from eating them whole.

Here I am sharing with you a very sweet vegan overnight oats with kiwi fruit. I am sure you'll love it or at least I hope so, it's a mouth-watering breakfast.

Overnight oats recipes are easy and simple to go for when you've busy mornings. What I love about oatmeal recipes is how you can customize them with different toppings.

This not only helps you with quick breakfast recipes but also makes you eat varieties of fruits which is good for your health.

Adding kiwi fruit to your toasted overnight oats will offer you a whole breakfast full of nutrients that will keep you going for hours without snacking.

Kiwi fruit benefits

You obviously have been told to eat oranges for their vitamin C, now I am recommending you to eat kiwifruit for it has high vitamin C than oranges. 

Besides, kiwi fruit will give you a good amount of vitamin K which is good for you to build strong bones. You'll also get some vitamin E, some minerals like potassium and copper.

Phytonutrients in kiwi have the ability to protect your DNA from damage caused by oxidation.

Kiwifruit is high in dietary fiber, combining it with oatmeal, you get a high dietary fiber breakfast that can help relieve your bowels and thus reducing constipation.

The vitamin C will help your body in neutralizing free radicals that can cause damage to your cells leading to inflammation and other health issues.

These dietary fibers also feed your gut microbiome which is in charge of your health in general.

Kiwi allergy

Are you one of those who can't eat a kiwi fruit because your tongue itches?

If your symptoms ends there, then I've got a solution for you, you can now enjoy kiwi without feeling that effect of itching tongue.

 My son has never liked kiwi, and while I could let it go when he was young, this kiwi season I'd to kindly force him to eat them, marketing to him the kiwi's health benefits.

But every time he could' ve a raw kiwi fruit, he'd not even finish his overnight oats due to itching tongue.

I thought of a solution and came up with the idea of warming the kiwi just a little in a pan, this reduces the acidity. Since then, he now enjoys his vegan overnight oats with kiwi fruit without an itching tongue.

So maybe you too could just solve this issue by heating your kiwifruit in a pan for 3 mins and voila.

I hope this tip can help you, and even if you've no problem with kiwifruit, warm your kiwifruit with some syrup or honey if you ain't vegan and serve them with overnight oats. 

To make kiwi fruit even sweeter, I add some agave/maple syrup and I can tell you, it takes these vegan overnight oats to another level.

I bet you'll love them, especially on a winter cold morning.

Note though that some kiwi allergies needs medical attention

In this overnight oats with persimmon recipe, I showed you how to toast your rolled oats to make them even tasty.

You can opt for toasting this vegan overnight oats with kiwi fruit or you can go ahead the classic way, but we love them warm, they 're really awesome.
