Ingredients:
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
1/2 cup Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Pinch of salt
1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
1 tablespoon nut butter (optional)
1 tablespoon goji berries (optional)
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional; note: cinnamon may have anti-inflammatory properties)
1 scoop collagen powder (optional, for added protein)
1 scoop protein powder (optional, for added protein)
Toppings of your choice: fresh or frozen fruit, nuts, seeds, etc.
Instructions:
In a jar or container with a lid, combine the rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup (if using), vanilla extract (if using), chia seeds (if using), nut butter (if using), goji berries (if using), cinnamon (if using), collagen powder (if using), and protein powder (if using).
Stir well to combine all ingredients.
Seal the jar or container with a lid and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours, to allow the oats chia seeds to soften and absorb the liquid.
In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If the consistency is too thick for your liking, you can add a splash of milk until it reaches your desired consistency.
Top your overnight oats with your favorite toppings, such as fresh or frozen fruit, nuts, seeds, etc.
Enjoy your delicious and nutritious breakfast!
Note: Cinnamon is optional and may have anti-inflammatory properties. Feel free to enjoy your overnight oats cold or heat them up before serving. I also mix in collagen powder and some protein powder. This is completely up to you!
