Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Rolled oats
- 0.5 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon Sweetener (honey, maple syrup, or agave)
- 0.25 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Fruit (e.g., berries, banana slices, or diced apple)
- 2 tablespoons Nuts or seeds (optional)
- 0.25 cup Greek yogurt (optional)
Instructions
In a glass jar or resealable container, combine the rolled oats, milk, chia seeds, sweetener, and vanilla extract.
Stir the mixture well to ensure the oats and chia seeds are fully incorporated.
If using Greek yogurt, add it to the mixture and stir again.
Cover the container with a lid or plastic wrap.
Refrigerate the mixture overnight or for at least 6 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
In the morning, give the oatmeal a good stir. Add additional milk if a thinner consistency is desired.
Top the oatmeal with your choice of fruit, nuts, or seeds.
Serve immediately, or securely close the container for a grab-and-go breakfast.
