Kefir Overnight Oats
Description
This recipe starts by mixing rolled oats, chia seeds, maple syrup, and plain kefir in a bowl, stirred to combine. The mixture is covered and refrigerated for at least 3 hours or overnight to allow the oats and seeds to soften and absorb the kefir. The fermentation-like effect of kefir adds a subtle tang, enhancing the overall flavor.
Once chilled and thickened, the oats offer a creamy yet textured dish with a balance of mild sweetness and slight tartness. Serving suggestions include adding fresh berries, jam, or nuts for additional flavor and texture.
