Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup rolled oats (old fashioned oats)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
- 1/4 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup or honey (optional)
- 1/2 cup mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries)
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a glass jar or a small bowl, add the rolled oats, chia seeds, and a pinch of salt. Pour in the almond milk, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and your sweetener of choice. Stir the mixture vigorously with a spoon until all the ingredients are well combined and there are no dry oat clumps remaining.
- Gently fold in half of your berries. If you are using large strawberries, slice them into bite-sized pieces first. The juices from the berries will begin to infuse into the oat mixture overnight, creating a natural sweetness and a beautiful color throughout the bowl.
- Seal the jar with a lid or cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Place it in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, though overnight is best. During this time, the oats and chia seeds will soak up the liquid, expanding into a creamy, pudding-like consistency. In the morning, top with the remaining fresh berries and enjoy straight from the jar or transfer to a beautiful bowl.
