Ingredients

• 1 cup Rolled oats
• 1 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy alternative such as oat, soy, or coconut milk)
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt or non-dairy yogurt
• 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
• 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup
• 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Fresh or dried fruit (e.g., berries, banana slices, raisins)

• 1 pinch Salt

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chia seeds, and a pinch of salt.

Step 2

Add the milk of your choice and yogurt to the oat mixture, stirring well to ensure everything is thoroughly mixed.

Step 4

Fold in the fresh or dried fruit, gently mixing to combine.

Step 5

Divide the mixture evenly between two jars or airtight containers.

Step 6

Seal the containers with lids and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours.

Step 7

In the morning, give the oatmeal a good stir to ensure everything is well mixed. If you find it too thick, you can add more milk to reach your desired consistency.
