Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- ½ cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
Toppings (optional)
- Fresh berries
- Nuts
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl or jar, mix together the rolled oats, unsweetened almond milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Add Berries: Gently fold the mixed berries into the oat mixture to distribute them evenly without crushing.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the bowl or jar and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight. This chilling time allows the oats to absorb the liquid and soften.
- Serve: In the morning, stir the oats well and top with additional fresh berries, nuts, or an extra drizzle of honey if desired. Serve chilled for a refreshing and nutritious breakfast.
Notes
- You can use either fresh or frozen berries depending on availability and preference.
- For a vegan alternative, substitute Greek yogurt with plant-based yogurt and use maple syrup instead of honey.
- Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of honey or maple syrup to suit your taste.
