Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (45g) old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) milk
  • 1/4 cup (60g) Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon (12g) chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch sea salt

Instructions:

  1. Place the 1/2 cup (45g) rolled oats into your clean glass jar. Note: Using a dry jar prevents the oats from sticking to the sides immediately.
  2. Add the 1 tablespoon (12g) chia seeds and the pinch of sea salt.
  3. Pour in the 1/2 cup (120ml) milk of your choice.
  4. Dollop the 1/4 cup (60g) Greek yogurt on top of the liquid.
  5. Drizzle the 1 tablespoon (15ml) maple syrup and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract over the mixture.
  6. Stir vigorously with a long spoon until no dry clumps of chia or oats are visible. Note: Chia seeds love to clump together, so be thorough here.
  7. Seal the jar tightly with its lid.
  8. Place the jar in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours. Wait until the mixture looks thick and opaque.
  9. Give it one final stir before eating to redistribute the creamy yogurt.
  10. Top with fresh berries or nuts just before serving to maintain their crunch.
