Ingredients
Oats and Dairy
- ½ cup rolled oats
- ½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt (optional, for extra creaminess)
Sweeteners and Flavorings
- 1 tablespoon honey
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Add-ins
- ½ cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
Instructions
- Combine ingredients: In a jar or bowl, combine oats, milk, Greek yogurt, honey, chia seeds, and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Add berries: Gently fold in the mixed berries to avoid breaking them up too much, ensuring an even distribution throughout the oats.
- Refrigerate: Cover the jar or bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and flavors to meld.
- Serve: Before serving, stir the oats well. Add extra berries or honey on top if desired for added flavor and sweetness.
Notes
- Frozen berries work well and release juice as they thaw, adding natural sweetness.
- Adjust the amount of liquid to achieve your preferred oats consistency, thicker or thinner.
- This dish keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, making it ideal for meal prep.
- For extra protein, consider adding nuts or a spoonful of nut butter.
