Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Toppings

  • Additional plain Greek yogurt (about 2 tablespoons)
  • 1 tablespoon icing sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk (almond or regular)
  • Extra ground cinnamon for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, add rolled oats, chia seeds, light brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir thoroughly to combine all the dry ingredients evenly.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in unsweetened almond milk, plain Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract into the dry mixture. Mix everything thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
  3. Refrigerate: Transfer the combined mixture into individual jars or containers with lids. Place them in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight, to allow the oats to soften and the flavors to meld beautifully.
  4. Prepare Topping (Optional): In a small bowl, whisk together additional plain Greek yogurt, icing sugar, and a splash of milk until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk or icing sugar if needed.
  5. Serve: Before serving, give the oats a good stir and top with the prepared yogurt-icing mixture. Sprinkle extra ground cinnamon on top for added warmth and flavor. Enjoy your overnight oats cold straight from the fridge or warm if preferred.

Notes

  • For a vegan option, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt alternative.
  • Adjust sweetness by increasing or reducing light brown sugar to taste.
  • Make sure to use rolled oats for the right texture; instant oats may become mushy.
  • Overnight oats can be prepared up to 3 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
  • Try adding mix-ins like chopped nuts or fresh fruit for added texture and flavor.
