Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 1/3 cup oats (use gluten-free oats if following a gluten-free diet)
- 1/3 cup almond milk or water
- 1 Tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tsp honey, agave syrup, or maple syrup
Toppings
- 1/2 cup berries (blueberries and raspberries recommended)
- 2 Tbsp chopped almonds
- 1 Tbsp almond butter
Instructions
- Prepare Overnight Oats Mixture: In a small tupperware or jar, combine the oats, chia seeds, almond milk (or water), and your choice of sweetener (honey, agave syrup, or maple syrup). Stir thoroughly for about 1 minute until all ingredients are well blended. Secure the lid tightly.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Place the jar in the refrigerator and let the mixture soak overnight or for at least 5 hours. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften, creating a creamy texture.
- Add Toppings and Serve: In the morning, remove the jar from the fridge. Top your soaked oats with the fresh berries, chopped almonds, and a tablespoon of almond butter. These toppings add crunch, flavor, and extra nutrition to your breakfast.
- Enjoy: Mix lightly if desired and enjoy a nourishing breakfast that supports heart, skin, and brain health.
Notes
- Use gluten-free oats if you have gluten sensitivity or celiac disease.
- Choose your preferred plant-based milk like almond, oat, or soy milk for variation.
- Sweetener can be adjusted or omitted to suit your taste or dietary needs.
- Overnight oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days for convenience.
- Feel free to swap berries and nuts for your favorites to customize flavors and textures.
