Equipment

  • Jar or Container

Ingredients
  

Overnight Oats

  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or to taste)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ lemon zest
  • ½ cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen)

Optional Topping

  • 1 tablespoon chopped almonds

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Combine rolled oats, almond milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and lemon zest in a jar.
  • Stir thoroughly to mix ingredients and prevent chia seed clumps.
  • Gently fold in the mixed berries.
  • Cover and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours.
  • Stir before serving and top with chopped almonds if desired.

Notes

For best results, allow at least 8 hours for the oats to fully absorb the liquid and achieve a creamy consistency. You can adjust the amount of maple syrup to your sweetness preference. Feel free to experiment with other fruits and toppings next time!
