Basic Chia Overnight Oats
My go-to chia overnight oats recipe. Soak these oats overnight and you'll get a thick and creamy bowl of oatmeal in the morning. Top it with fruit and nut or seed butter for a delicious and satisfying breakfast.
Servings 2
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 1/2 cup plant-based milk of choice, unsweetened
Suggested Toppings
- Fresh fruit
- Nut or seed butter
Instructions
- Stir the oats, chia seeds and plant-based milk in a bowl or sealable container. Cover and let sit in the fridge overnight.
- The next morning, stir the oats and add an additional splash of milk if desired.
- Serve with toppings of choice.
Notes
I recommend eating overnight oats within 3 days and not to prepare them for an entire week in advance.
I like to serve mine with half a mashed banana, berries and peanut butter or sunflower seed butter. My favorite milk to use is unsweetened almond milk, but you can use what you have on hand.
