Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Toppings (Optional)
- Sliced bananas
- Chopped nuts
- Drizzle of maple syrup
Instructions
- Combine ingredients: In a jar or airtight container, mix the oats, milk, Greek yogurt, brown sugar, chia seeds (if using), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to ensure everything is fully combined.
- Refrigerate overnight: Cover the container and place it in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or overnight, allowing the oats to absorb the liquid and soften.
- Stir and adjust thickness: In the morning, stir the oats thoroughly. Add additional milk if you prefer a thinner consistency and stir again.
- Add toppings and serve: Top your prepared oats with desired toppings such as sliced bananas, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of maple syrup before enjoying.
Notes
- Prepare multiple servings ahead by multiplying the recipe and storing in individual jars for easy grab-and-go breakfasts.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute the milk and Greek yogurt with plant-based alternatives like almond milk and coconut yogurt.
- Adjust the sweetness by increasing or decreasing the amount of brown sugar according to your taste preference.
