Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (optional, for creaminess)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional, for added texture and nutrition)
  • Sweetener of your choice (such as honey or maple syrup,), to taste

Optional toppings: fruits (such as berries, banana slices), nuts (such as almonds, walnuts), seeds (such as pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds), peanut butter, shredded coconut, cinnamon, cocoa, etc.

Instructions:

  1. In a bowl or jar, combine oats, Greek yogurt (or milk), chia seeds and sweetener (honey, or maple syrup). Stir well until everything is mixed.
  2. Cover the bowl or mason jar with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours, to allow the oats to soften and absorb the liquid.
  3. In the morning, stir the oats.
  4. Add your favorite toppings (fruits, nuts) and enjoy your delicious and nutritious overnight oats!
