Overnight Oats
It’s so nice to have breakfast ready when you want it. I’ve been making overnight oats lately and thought I’d share my version. You mix them up at night and pop them in the fridge. The next day you top them with your favorite yogurt fruit and nuts. The possible toppings are only limited to your imagination.
This recipe makes 2 servings.
Ingredients
1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
2 Tbsp. chia seeds
A few shakes of ground cinnamon
1 cup milk of your choice - I use unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1 Tbsp. nut butter of your choice (I use sunflower butter)
Your choice of berries - I used blueberries and strawberries
Greek Yogurt - I used vanilla
Coarsely chopped walnuts
Pure maple syrup or honey
Method
In a glass bowl or Mason jar, combine the oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, milk and nut butter. Stir to combine. Cover and place in the refrigerator overnight. The next morning, remove half of the oat mixture into an individual bowl. Place a dollop of yogurt in the center top with your favorite toppings, drizzle with maple syrup or honey. Save the other half for another meal, or share with a friend.
Here are some topping ideas:
Nuts or seeds of any kind
Coconut
Dried fruit or your favorite fresh fruit
Your favorite jam
Mini chocolate chips
Nutella
