This easy vegan eggnog overnight oats recipe is a simple, delicious, and festive breakfast option for busy mornings during the hectic holiday season.

I’m on an eggnog kick lately, if you haven’t noticed. 

What’s not to like? There’s cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla all bundled together in one tasty beverage. It’s hard to catch me with a beverage other than hot cocoa once the cold weather hits, but eggnog is delicious and festive enough to have between breaks in my hot chocolate sessions. Sometimes you might catch me double fisting- hot cocoa in one hand and eggnog in the other.

I say this, but truth be told, I’d never had eggnog with actual eggs. The thought of it always kind of grossed me out. Besides, Grandma got run over by a reindeer when she’d been drinking too much eggnog and I wasn’t willing to take that kind of risk. 

There are several vegan eggnog alternatives that already exist and there are more being released each year. 

My favorites, in no particular order, are:

Because the holidays are my excuse to have festive eggnog and to essentially have dessert for breakfast, I decided to combine the two.
