Ingredients
Scale
Overnight Oats Base
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups almond milk
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Fruit
- 1 cup strawberries, chopped
Instructions
- Combine oats and milk: In a bowl, mix the rolled oats and almond milk thoroughly to ensure the oats are evenly soaked.
- Add sweeteners and flavorings: Stir in the honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Mix well to blend the flavors evenly throughout the oats.
- Incorporate strawberries: Fold the chopped strawberries into the oat mixture gently to distribute the fruit without breaking it down too much.
- Refrigerate overnight: Cover the bowl or transfer the mixture into a jar with a lid and refrigerate for at least 6-8 hours or overnight to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and soften.
- Serve and enjoy: In the morning, give the oats a good stir and enjoy them chilled. You can add additional toppings such as nuts or seeds if desired.
Notes
- Use gluten-free oats if you require a gluten-free diet.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of honey or maple syrup used.
- For creamier oats, let them sit longer or use full-fat almond milk.
- Fresh or frozen strawberries can be used according to preference and availability.
- Overnight oats can be prepared in individual jars for easy grab-and-go breakfasts.
