Description
Delicious and healthy overnight oats made with rolled oats, chia seeds, and topped with your favorite ingredients.
Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup rolled oats (also called “traditional” or “old-fashioned” oats)
- ½ Tbsp chia seeds
- ½ cup milk (I use unsweetened almond milk)
- ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt (or vanilla)
- 1 Tbsp pure maple syrup
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp molasses
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp ground ginger
- ⅛ tsp ground cloves
- pinch ground nutmeg (just a small amount goes a long way)
Instructions
- In a mason jar or other container with a lid, combine the dry ingredients including the oats, chia seeds, and spices. Give it a stir.
- Add the milk, yogurt, maple syrup, molasses, and vanilla. Stir it really well.
- Store in the fridge overnight (or at least 3-4 hours) in an airtight container. When ready to serve the next morning, add your favorite toppings.
- Hint: Use a wide-mouth mason jar or even an empty peanut butter or almond butter jar to make your overnight oats. Don’t use a container with a narrow mouth because it will be harder to mix.
Notes
- Use almond milk for a dairy-free option.
- Consider adding fresh fruits or nuts as toppings.
