Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk or dairy-free alternative (almond, oat, soy)
- 1/2 cup yogurt (regular, Greek, or dairy-free)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Fruit and nuts for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Add the rolled oats, milk, yogurt, chia seeds, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract to a blender.
- Blend on medium-high until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy, about 30–45 seconds.
- Pour the blended oats into a jar or bowl and seal or cover with plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate overnight (or at least 6–8 hours) so the mixture thickens and the chia seeds expand.
- In the morning, stir the oats to combine. Add toppings like fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, or a drizzle of extra maple syrup before serving.
Notes
Use rolled oats for optimal texture. For a lower-sugar version, reduce sweetener or use mashed banana. Refrigerate for up to 3–4 days.
