Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup (45g) rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons (20g) chia seeds
- 1 cup (240ml) milk of choice (unsweetened almond milk recommended)
- ¼ cup (60g) plain Greek yogurt (optional)
- ½ cup (75g) frozen blueberries
- 1 tablespoon (15ml) maple syrup or honey
- ½ teaspoon (2.5ml) vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons (30g) almond butter
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Combine ½ cup rolled oats and 2 tablespoons chia seeds in a mason jar or airtight container.
- Add 1 cup milk of choice and ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt to the jar.
- Stir in 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey, ½ teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
- Mix thoroughly with a spoon or whisk to avoid chia clumps and ensure even soaking.
- Gently fold in ½ cup frozen blueberries.
- Seal the jar or container tightly and refrigerate overnight for at least 6 hours, ideally 8 or more.
- In the morning, stir the oats gently and drizzle 2 tablespoons almond butter on top before serving.
Notes
Warm almond butter for 10-15 seconds if too thick for easier drizzling. Add extra milk in the morning if oats are too thick. Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture. Can be stored up to 4 days in the fridge without almond butter.
