Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup fresh fruit (e.g., berries, banana slices)
- 1 tablespoon nuts or seeds (optional)
- 2 tablespoons vegan yogurt (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized bowl or a jar with a lid, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt.
Step 2
Stir the mixture well to ensure that the chia seeds and oats are evenly distributed.
Step 3
Cover the bowl or seal the jar with a lid and place it in the refrigerator overnight or for at least 6 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
Step 4
In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick for your liking, add a splash of almond milk to loosen it up.
Step 5
Divide the oats into two servings. Top each serving with your choice of fresh fruit, nuts or seeds, and vegan yogurt if using.
Step 6
Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, adjusting the consistency with a bit more almond milk if needed before eating.
