Basic Overnight Oats Recipe
This Basic Overnight Oats recipe uses quick oats soaked overnight in almond milk with added nuts, chia seeds, banana slices, blueberries, cinnamon, and a touch of natural sweetener. The cold-soaking process softens the oats and creates a creamy, textured breakfast that can be topped with crunchy ingredients for variety. The combination offers a balanced start to the day with fruit, nuts, and whole grains.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup quick oats (I prefer organic, you can use gluten-free)
- 1 tbsp pecans or any nuts or seeds, chopped
- 1/2 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1/2 banana sliced (use the other half as a topping, medium
- 1/2 tbsp chia seeds
- 1/2 cup blueberries (divided)
- Monk Fruit Sweetener or your favorite sweetener, or stevia, to taste
- pinch cinnamon
Instructions
- Place all the ingredient in a jar, shake, cover and refrigerate overnight.
- The next morning, add your favorite crunchy toppings such as nuts, granola, etc and enjoy!
