Description
A no-cook, creamy breakfast made by soaking oats in milk, yogurt, and chia seeds overnight. Ready in the morning with customization options for texture and flavor.
Ingredients
1/2 cup rolled (old-fashioned) oats (Avoid instant for texture contrast)
1 cup milk (non-dairy/animal milk, almond oil for richer profile)
1/4 cup plain Greek or plant-based yogurt (Probiotic boost for digestion)
1 tbsp maple syrup or brown rice syrup (Adjust to taste preferences)
1 tbsp chia seeds (Omegas for heart health)
1/2 tsp cinnamon (Anti-inflammatory spice)
Instructions
Clean 16-ounce mason jar or airtight container
Add oats first to prevent moisture absorption
Top with chia seeds for even coating
Pour milk to create 1/2″ headspace
Stir in yogurt, sweetener, and cinnamon
Seal container and refrigerate overnight (4-6 hours min)
Gently stir before adding toppings in morning
Notes
Chill all liquid ingredients pre-mixing to slow fermentation
Customize with toppings like fresh berries, nuts, or banana
Store in the fridge for up to 24 hours
For vegan: use plant-based yogurt and maple syrup
