Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • Pinch of salt

Creamy Elements

  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or plant-based yogurt
  • 1/2 cup milk or milk alternative (such as almond or coconut milk)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)

Fruit

  • 1/2 cup fresh raspberries

Instructions

  1. Combine the dry ingredients: Add rolled oats, chia seeds, and a pinch of salt to a mason jar or airtight container, forming the hearty base of your overnight oats.
  2. Add creamy elements and flavorings: Pour in your choice of milk and yogurt, add vanilla extract and honey or maple syrup if using, then gently stir until the oats are evenly coated and well mixed.
  3. Layer the raspberries: Gently fold in fresh raspberries, carefully maintaining their shape while ensuring even distribution throughout the mixture.
  4. Refrigerate overnight: Seal the container and place it in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight, allowing the oats to soak up the liquid and develop a creamy texture.
  5. Serve and enjoy: The next morning, stir the oats briefly, add any additional desired toppings, and enjoy directly from the fridge or warmed slightly if preferred.

Notes

  • Use rolled oats for best texture; avoid instant oats.
  • Chia seeds help thicken the mixture and provide omega-3 fatty acids.
  • Fresh raspberries offer the best flavor, but frozen raspberries work well too.
  • Adjust sweetness carefully as raspberries provide natural tartness.
  • Recipe scales easily for single or multiple servings.
