Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • ¾ cup milk - I used coconut
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp honey or maple syrup
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  • I make my overnight oats in individual containers. Leftover jam jars are my favorite, but you can use any container with a lid.
  • Pour half the ingredients into one jar, half into another. Alternatively you can just use one larger container.
  • Stir well. Put on the lid, then refrigerate overnight.
  • In the morning, scoop into your favorite bowl and top with anything or nothing. Today I used fresh strawberries, blueberries, raw walnuts, and an extra sprinkle of cinnamon.
  • Stay healthy!
