Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 0.5 cup fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoons sliced almonds
- 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl or a mason jar, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, chia seeds, ground flaxseed, honey, cinnamon, and vanilla extract.
Stir well to make sure all the ingredients are thoroughly mixed. Ensure the oats and seeds are immersed in the almond milk.
Cover the bowl or mason jar with a lid or plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator overnight, or for at least 4 hours, to allow the oats and seeds to absorb the liquid.

Top the oatmeal with fresh blueberries and sliced almonds before serving.
Enjoy your heart-healthy overnight oatmeal as a nutritious start to your day.
