Overnight Oats with Chia
May 27, 2024
Chia seeds are high in fiber and anti-oxidants, and add a great bit of texture. Steel-cut oats are also a healthy source of fiber and are a recommended part of a diet to lower cholesterol and blood pressure.
It is similar to the Chia Pudding recipe I’ve done before but with oats and a lower ratio maple syrup to add creaminess.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (160g) Quick & Easy Steel Cut Irish Oats
- 1 cup (227g) almond milk
- 1/2 cup (112g) greek yogurt
- 1/4 teaspoon (4g) vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons (20g) chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon (15g) maple syrup
- to taste honey
- 2 cups blackberries, strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries
- 1/4 cup almonds, sliced
This recipe can be suitable for the following restricted diets:
- DASH
Instructions
- Mix the oats, almond milk, greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and maple syrup in a large bowl. Mix in the chia seeds and refridgerate overnight.
- The next day, spoon servings of the oats and chia pudding into individual cups and top with honey, fruit, and almonds to taste. If desired the oatmeal can also be heated in the microwave. The oatmeal will keep for about 5 days in the fridge.
