Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (gluten-free if desired)
  • 1/2 cup almond milk
  • 2 tsp. chia seeds
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/8 tsp. almond extract
  • 1-2 Tbsp. pure maple syrup

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine all ingredients except oats in a small bowl or jar. Stir to combine.
  2. Add oats and gently stir. Lightly press down with a spoon to make sure they are all fully submerged in the liquid.
  3. Cover and place in the fridge for a few hours or overnight.
  4. Enjoy as is or top with banana, berries, granola, nut butters, etc. before serving.

Notes

  • Plant milk: I use unsweetened plain almond milk for this recipe. Adjust the syrup as desired depending on how much sweetness you like (or if you’re using a sweetened milk). You may find you need a little less vanilla if you’re using a vanilla flavored milk.
  • Almond extract: It is very strong so be sure to only use the 1/8 tsp. otherwise it can overpower.
