Ingredients:

  • ½ cup (40g) rolled oats (old-fashioned oats are best)
  • 1 cup (240ml) milk (dairy or non-dairy, such as almond, soy, or oat milk)
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) chia seeds (optional, for added thickness and nutrition)
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) Greek yogurt (optional, for extra creaminess and protein)
  • 1 teaspoon (5ml) honey or maple syrup (or any sweetener, to taste)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions:

  1. In the mason jar or container, add the rolled oats, milk, chia seeds (if using), Greek yogurt (if using), sweetener, and salt.
  2. Stir all the ingredients together until well combined. Make sure the oats are fully submerged in the milk.
  3. Securely seal the container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight (8+ hours).
  4. After soaking, check the consistency. If the oats are too thick, add a splash of milk to reach your desired consistency. If they are too thin, consider adding more chia seeds and refrigerating longer.
  5. Before serving, add your favourite toppings and flavourings. Dig in and enjoy your delicious overnight oats!
