Description
A quick and healthy recipe for Breakfast Overnight Oats with mixed berries, perfect for a nutritious and convenient morning meal. These oats soak overnight with plant-based milk and maple syrup, creating a creamy, naturally sweetened oatmeal that’s ready to enjoy cold or at room temperature.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- ½ cup rolled oats (45 grams)
- ½ cup plant-based milk (115 ml) – oat milk recommended, but any plant-based milk works
- ½ cup frozen mixed berries (70 grams)
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup (10 grams) or agave nectar as a substitute
- A pinch of salt (optional)
Instructions
- Mix: Add the rolled oats to a small jar. Pour in the plant-based milk, followed by the maple syrup. Stir the mixture well to combine all ingredients evenly.
- Chill: Place the frozen berries on top of the oat mixture. Seal the jar and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight, allowing the oats to soak and flavors to meld.
- Stir and Serve: Before serving, briefly stir the oats to blend the pink berry juices throughout for an appealing color. Optionally, add toppings like yogurt or any favorites to enhance flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use any plant-based milk according to your preference or dietary needs.
- The recipe is easily customizable with different fruits or sweeteners.
- Overnight soaking softens the oats without cooking, making it an effortless meal prep option.
- For added protein, consider adding nuts, seeds, or plant-based yogurt toppings.
