Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 tsp matcha powder
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1-2 tbsp ground flax seeds (optional)
- 1/8 tsp cinnamon (optional)
- 1/2 cup yogurt (I use vegan coconut yogurt or Greek yogurt)
- 1/2 cup milk (I use almond milk)
- 1 tbsp maple syrup (or your sweetener of choice)
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together rolled oats, sifted matcha powder, chia seeds, ground flax seeds (optional), and cinnamon (optional).
- Add yogurt, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract and whisk again to combine.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for at least 4 hours or overnight so it has time to soak.
- In the morning, serve the oats topped with fresh berries, more yogurt, granola, or your favorite toppings, and enjoy!
Notes
Storing: Store the overnight oats in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-5 days. The longer the oats sit with the milk and yogurt, the more they’ll soak up the liquid and get mushier. They taste the best the first 1-3 days. I don’t recommend freezing them.
You can warm up the oats in the morning in a small saucepan on the stove if you prefer hot oatmeal. Add a splash of milk or water and warm up over medium heat for a few minutes until warmed through.
