Overnight oats is one of my favorite school year recipes! It’s healthy, easy on the tummy, and super customizable in regards to flavors. Here’s my base recipe:
1/2 cup oats
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup milk
1 tbsp chia seeds if you want extra fiber and protein
Mix all the ingredients together in a jar or mug and leave in your fridge overnight. Using a taller container, rather than a bowl, can help reduce dryness on the surface.
Some of my favorite variations:
Maple nut:
2 tbsp maple syrup
1/8 cup walnuts
Chocolate & PB:
2 tbsp creamy peanut butter
1 tbsp cocoa powder
Blueberry:
1/8 cup frozen blueberries
2 tbsp honey
Other options are fruits, fresh or frozen, nuts and protein powder. Consider visiting Pioneer Provisions for fresh fruit and toppings!
