kcalIngredients
2 cups rolled oats
2 cups almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
4 tablespoons chia seeds (optional for added fiber)
2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
1 cup fresh fruit (berries, bananas, or apples)
4 jars or airtight containers for meal prep
Directions
- Prepare the base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, chia seeds, vanilla extract (if using), and honey (if desired). Stir until well combined.
- Divide into containers: Evenly distribute the oat mixture into 4 individual jars or airtight containers.
- Refrigerate overnight: Cover the jars and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
- Add fresh fruit: In the morning, top each jar with your choice of fresh fruit, such as berries, bananas, or apples.
- Serve: Enjoy your overnight oats cold, or heat them up for a warm breakfast. These can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, making them perfect for meal prep.
