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.
