Instructions

Combine Oats and Milk. In four 8-oz. mason jars place equal amounts of the oats, milk and vanilla in each. (½ cup oats, ½ cup milk, and ¼ teaspoon vanilla in each.) Stir to mix well.
Top with Sweetener. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, cinnamon and maple syrup. Pour a quarter of this mixture in each of the jars over the oats. Refrigerate the oats for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Toast Pecans and Serve. Just before serving, toast pecans at 325 degrees for 5-7 minutes. Divide pecans and sprinkle in each jar. Serve with additional cinnamon and maple syrup, if desired, and enjoy!

Prep-Ahead Instructions:
This recipe is perfect to prep ahead. Simply combine all of the ingredients, except the pecans, in a jar. Leave in the refrigerator for up to 4 to 5 days.
Storage Directions:
Prepared jars will last in the fridge for up to 4 to 5 days.
Recipe Tips
Get rolling. Stick with old-fashioned rolled oats rather than quick or steel-cut oats for the best results.
Make it work. While maple syrup and brown sugar add to the classic flavor, you can easily change it up with different sweeteners.
Wait for it. Don't add the toasted pecans until you're about to dig into this brown sugar oatmeal recipe.
Add some fuel. An easy way to feel full longer is to include some optional add-ins, like protein powder, flax seeds, or chia seeds.
Go big. Whip up a double batch of this oatmeal and have breakfast taken care of all week.
