Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients
  • 1 cup 100 g old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup 240 ml milk (any type — dairy or plant-based)
  • ½ cup 120 g Greek yogurt (adds creaminess and protein)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds optional, thickens the mixture
  • 1 –2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup to taste
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional Toppings:
  • Fresh fruit bananas, berries, apples, or peaches
  • Nut butter peanut, almond, or cashew
  • Nuts or seeds walnuts, pecans, sunflower seeds
  • Cinnamon or cocoa powder
  • Granola for crunch

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. Combine Base Ingredients
  3. In a medium bowl or jar, mix oats, milk, yogurt, chia seeds, sweetener, vanilla, and salt. Stir well to combine.
  4. Transfer to Containers
  5. Divide evenly into two jars or airtight containers. Make sure there’s room for expansion as the oats absorb liquid.
  6. Refrigerate Overnight
  7. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours (or overnight) to allow the oats to soften and flavors to meld.
  8. Stir & Serve
  9. In the morning, stir well. Add a splash of milk if it’s too thick.
  10. Customize & Enjoy
  11. Top with fruit, nuts, nut butter, or granola just before serving. Enjoy cold straight from the fridge or warm briefly in the microwave if desired.

Notes

Chef’s Tip
• For a dessert-style version, add cocoa powder and sliced strawberries before chilling.
• For a high-protein boost, mix in a scoop of vanilla protein powder.
• For a grab-and-go option, layer the oats and fruit parfait-style in mason jars with lids.
