It’s the Prep Ahead Breakfast trend that’s got ALL the mums talking!!
You’ve probably already heard of different ‘Overnight’ breakfast recipes that make busy weekday mornings so much easier. Things like ‘Overnight Oats,’ that you prep the night before for a delicious and healthy breakfast to wake up to.
Well now, thanks to TIK TOK, there’s a new prep ahead brekkie sensation that mums can’t get enough of!
Introducing, Overnight Weetbix!!
You may be initially skeptical of the idea of soggy weetbix, but as all the mum who have tried it agree, it is an absolutely delicious and super easy breakfast with the added bonus of being a high protein and healthy start to the day.
So what goes into Overnight Weetbix?
The beauty of this yummy breakfast is that there are heaps of different ingredient variations you can use.
The base ingredient of course is the weetbix mixed with milk of your choice, you can use less milk if you like a crunchier base. This is patted down in a container and topped with a high protein yoghurt like Yo-pro .
Now comes the fun bit! Mix in other ingredients to the yoghurt like fruit, maple syrup, choc chips, biscoff, cacao, protein powder, low fat cream cheese…. The possibilities are endless!
The Healthy Mummy was very quick to jump on the Overnight Weetbix bandwagon and as part of the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge has added lots of delicious Overnight Weetbix Recipes into the Healthy Mummy App. And the mums in the Healthy Mummy Community were also quick to try them out and have been sharing and raving about their creations!
Take a look what mums have been posting and get a sneak peek of some the Overnight Weetbix Recipes on the Healthy Mummy App.

Make up your own!
Once you’ve tried out the concept of Overnight Weetbix, it’s easy to make up your own version depending on your particular tastes! Mums have also been sharing their own recipes and variations for Overnight Weetbix including Cassie McKay who put her own spin on it.
Cassie shared ‘ Has anyone else jumped onto the overnight Weetbix trend? I’ve been playing around with recipes the past few days – they’re so easy to prepare the night before and with 3 kids I’ve got to make sure breakfast is easy, otherwise I miss out. This one is Raspberry & White Chocolate Overnight Weetbix and I’d say this is my favourite so far!!
Base- Simply mix 2 weetbix with half cup almond milk and a little dessicated coconut. You can reduce the milk for a crunchier base. Spread over base of bowl/ container.
Topping – 130g Vanilla YoPro mixed with 15g light cream cheese & Avalanche Caramelised White Choc powder. Then added in some frozen raspberries and a dash of lemon juice. Spread over the weetbix base and topped with some melted white choc.
Comes in at just over 400 cals. I’m breastfeeding, so this is a good size breakfast for me.
To reduce calories – reduce almond milk (or just use water) and leave out coconut; reduce or omit Cream cheese; reduce or omit chocolate (white chocolate was 17g which adds 90 calories)’
Yum! Thank you for sharing Cassie!
