The Cool Stuff You Need
Gather up these ingredients to unlock the magic of delightfully sweet and crunchy overnight oats:
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk (dairy or your favorite non-dairy alternative)
- 1/2 cup yogurt (again, the dairy or non-dairy type is totally up to you!)
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (gotta get that sweetness!)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (because you’re fancy)
- A pinch of salt (just a pinch, we’re not trying to be salty here)
- Whatever toppings your heart desires: fresh fruits, nuts, seeds, or maybe a sprinkle of chocolate (no judgment here!)
Let’s Get Cooking…Sort of
Here’s how to toss these ingredients together and set yourself up for an epic breakfast:
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the rolled oats, milk, yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir it up like you mean it!
- Grab a mason jar or a handy container. Layer the oat mixture with your favorite toppings! Will you go for banana slices, berries, or a nutty crunch? The sky’s the limit!
- Seal the jar or container and refrigerate it overnight. That’s it! Your ingredients will mingle and create oat magic while you snooze (or moan at the morning sun).
- When you’re ready to eat, give it a good stir. If you want a looser consistency, throw in a splash more milk. Now, dig in!
