Golden Milk Overnight Oats
Description
This recipe soaks gluten-free rolled oats overnight in a mixture of coconut milk, golden milk spice blend (including turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, black pepper, nutmeg, and clove as optional), almond butter, chia seeds, and maple syrup. Soaking the oats allows them to soften without cooking, creating a creamy yet textured base. The almond butter adds richness and a mild nutty flavor, balanced by the subtle sweetness of maple syrup.
The resulting oats have a warm spice profile characteristic of golden milk, brightened by the coconut milk's natural sweetness and the fresh slices of banana served on top. Additional optional coconut flakes and yogurt can be added for texture and creaminess. This dish is best served within one to two days of preparation and should be stored in the refrigerator. It is not suitable for freezing.
The recipe notes include the specific measurements for individual ground spices if making your own blend, which can be adapted if changing the recipe proportions. Nutrition estimates exclude optional ingredients.
