Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (45g) old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) milk of choice (almond milk preferred)
  • 2 tablespoons (about 30g) honey nut butter
  • 1/4 cup (60g) Greek yogurt, plain or vanilla
  • 1 tablespoon (12g) chia seeds (optional but recommended)
  • 1 teaspoon (7g) honey (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon (2.5ml) vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (75g) fresh strawberries, sliced
  • Optional toppings: chopped nuts, extra honey drizzle, or a sprinkle of cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Combine dry ingredients: In your jar or container, add 1/2 cup (45g) rolled oats and 1 tablespoon (12g) chia seeds. Stir to mix evenly.
  2. Add wet ingredients: Pour in 1/2 cup (120ml) milk of choice and 1/4 cup (60g) Greek yogurt. Stir gently but thoroughly to combine.
  3. Mix in nut butter and flavorings: Add 2 tablespoons (30g) honey nut butter, 1 teaspoon (7g) honey, and 1/2 teaspoon (2.5ml) vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and creamy.
  4. Seal and refrigerate: Cover the jar or container with a lid and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  5. Prepare fresh strawberries: Just before serving, slice 1/2 cup (75g) fresh strawberries and prepare any additional toppings.
  6. Serve: Stir the oats, top with fresh strawberries and optional honey or cinnamon. Enjoy chilled or let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes if preferred less cold.

Notes

Use rolled oats for best texture; avoid instant or quick oats. Chia seeds help thicken and add nutrition but can be omitted. Let oats soak 6-8 hours for optimal creaminess. Add fresh fruit just before serving to keep it fresh. Stir in extra milk if oats are too thick in the morning. Vegan substitutions include plant-based milk, yogurt, and maple syrup instead of honey.
