Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup Rolled oats
  • 1 cup, unsweetened Almond milk
  • 2 tablespoons Almond butter
  • 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
  • 1-2 teaspoons (or to taste) Maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • : sliced bananas, berries, chopped almonds, coconut flakes Optional toppings

Combine Ingredients

In a jar or container with a lid, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, almond butter, chia seeds, maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract. Stir well to ensure everything is mixed together.

Refrigerate Overnight

Cover the jar or container and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours. This allows the oats to soften and absorb the liquid.

Customize and Enjoy

In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If they are too thick, add a splash of almond milk to reach your desired consistency. Add your favorite toppings, such as sliced bananas, berries, chopped almonds, or coconut flakes. Enjoy cold!
