In a mason jar or small bowl, combine the rolled oats, skim milk, and low-fat yogurt. Stir well to ensure the oats are fully immersed in the liquid.
Add the chia seeds, honey, and vanilla extract to the mixture. Stir again to evenly distribute these ingredients.
Cover the jar or bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator overnight or for at least 6 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken.
In the morning, remove the oats from the refrigerator. Stir the mixture. You may need to add a little more milk if the oats have become too thick for your liking.
Top your oats with the fresh fruits of your choice. If desired, add a sprinkle of nuts for extra crunch and flavor.
Enjoy your low-fat soaked overnight oats cold or let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to take off the chill before eating.
