Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 0.5 cup plain yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons dried fruit (e.g., raisins, cranberries, or chopped apricots)
- 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, or pistachios)
- 0.5 cup fresh fruit (e.g., berries, banana slices, or apple chunks)
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, milk, plain yogurt, honey or maple syrup, chia seeds, dried fruit, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
Stir the mixture well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed and the oats are completely moistened.
Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
The next morning, give the muesli a good stir. If it's thicker than you prefer, add a splash of milk to loosen the consistency.
Divide the muesli into serving bowls or jars and top with fresh fruit and chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy and delicious Overnight Oatmeal Muesli!
