Ingredients

Instructions

    Prepping the oats for soaking overnight

  1. Add two cups of rolled oats in a big bowl. You can use instant oats too! 
  2. Add two tablespoons of chia seeds and to make it even healthier add half a cup of mixed nuts (just add in whatever nuts you have)
  3. Next, add two cups of milk. You can substitute this with dairy-free milk, like almond milk, pea milk etc. You can also use thin yogurt if you like, or water too! I’m not sure how that’s going to taste but it should work!
  4. Let this soak in the fridge overnight! (therefore called overnight oats) 
  5. Next morning, the oats should be nice and soft! Adjust to your desired consistency with more milk or more yogurt or more water!
  6. Sweeten it with honey or whatever sweetener you like! 
  7. Add half a teaspoon of salt to balance out the sweetness
  8. Now i’m going to divide this into 8 cups for 8 different flavors! The flavors are simple yet delicious, I hope you like it 🙂

Notes

  • My kids eat this breakfast almost every single day and you know why they don’t get bored because you can really switch up the flavors and keep it interesting. It’s healthy, they love it and that makes me a happy mommy! While I do my dishes every night I just soak some oats really quickly and next morning breakfast is ready! 
  • Some quick tips for you: if you’re using old-fashioned rolled oats let it rest overnight. If you’re using instant oats a few hours of soaking should be enough to make it soft. If you’re using steel cut oats i’m not sure it’s going to get really soft so i wouldn’t recommend using that but i may be wrong, so if you tried it and it worked let me know!
