Overnight Oats

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats

  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds

  • 1 teaspoon ground flax seeds

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 1/4 cup almond milk

  • 1/2 cup blueberries

  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup (optional)

  • 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (optional)

Add rolled oats, chia seeds, ground flax and cinnamon to a pint (or larger) mason jar. I highly recommend using the wide mouth jar for this. Then pour in the almond milk and maple syrup and stir thoroughly. Cover with lid and refrigerate overnight. You can “rush” this time to a minimum of 1 hour, but for best results I recommend 6-8 hours. Top with blueberries and chopped pecans before serving. You can substitute any berries and/or nuts of your preference. Occasionally I use sliced banana and a few spoons of peanut butter instead, the topping combinations can be anything that sounds good to you. As a meal prep, overnight oats will last 3-5 days in the fridge without toppings.
