Ingredients
Scale
Oats Mixture:
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt (optional for creaminess)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
Fruit and Nut:
- 1/2 cup mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries)
- 1/4 cup pitted cherries (fresh or frozen, halved)
- 1 tablespoon sliced almonds (plus more for topping)
Instructions
- Combine Oats Mixture: In a jar or airtight container, combine oats, almond milk, Greek yogurt (if using), chia seeds, maple syrup, and almond extract. Stir well to combine.
- Add Fruit and Nuts: Gently fold in berries, cherries, and sliced almonds. Cover and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours, to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid.
- Enjoy: In the morning, stir the oats and add a splash of milk if needed for desired consistency. Top with additional berries and almonds before serving. Enjoy chilled or slightly warmed.
Notes
- Use frozen berries and cherries if fresh aren’t available—no need to thaw.
- Make it vegan by using plant-based yogurt or omitting yogurt entirely.
- Great for meal prep—keeps well in the fridge for up to 3 days.
