Ingredients

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

1 tablespoon chia seeds

2 tablespoons almond butter (or peanut butter)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

Fresh fruit toppings (such as berries, sliced banana, or diced apple)

Optional: 2 tablespoons hemp seeds for an extra protein boost

Instructions

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.

Stir the mixture thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined. Ensure that the oats and chia seeds are submerged in the liquid for even absorption overnight.

Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if desired. Mix in hemp seeds if using for additional protein.

Divide the mixture into two airtight jars or containers, sealing them tightly.

Place the jars in the refrigerator and allow them to sit overnight (or for at least 4 hours) to thicken and develop flavors.

In the morning, give the oats a good stir and add a splash of milk if they are too thick for your liking.

Top with your choice of fresh fruits, nuts, or seeds before serving.
