Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 1/3 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
- 2 teaspoon chia seeds
- 1/3 cup almond milk (or other milk of choice)
- Dash of cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2-3 teaspoon honey or pure maple syrup (optional, adjust depending on the yogurt)
Toppings
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 graham cracker sheet, crushed
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mason jar, cereal bowl, or Tupperware container, measure out the oats, vanilla Greek yogurt, chia seeds, almond milk, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and honey or maple syrup. Mix together thoroughly until well combined.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the mixture with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and become soft.
- Add Toppings and Serve: The next morning, remove the container from the refrigerator. Top the overnight oats with fresh blueberries and sprinkle the crushed graham cracker sheet on top. Enjoy immediately for a creamy, flavorful breakfast.
Notes
- You can substitute almond milk with any milk of your choice, including dairy or plant-based options.
- The sweetness can be adjusted by varying the amount of honey or maple syrup, or omitted if your yogurt is already sweetened.
- Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture, as quick oats may become too mushy.
- Prepare multiple servings in separate containers for easy grab-and-go breakfasts throughout the week.
- For added texture and nutrients, consider stirring in some nuts or seeds before refrigerating.
