Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup unsweetened vanilla cashew or almond milk
  • cup rolled oats old-fashioned
  • 3 tablespoons plain fat-free yogurt (dairy or dairy-free)
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds
  • ¼ cup fresh mixed berries plus additional for garnish
  • 1 teaspoon zero-sugar maple syrup or 4–5 drops vanilla stevia
  • Optional: pinch of cinnamon
  • Optional: dash of vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Combine the rolled oats, milk, yogurt, chia seeds, maple syrup or stevia, fresh berries, and, if desired, cinnamon and vanilla in a jar or storage container with a lid.
  2. Mix all ingredients thoroughly. Secure the lid and refrigerate the mixture overnight.
  3. In the morning or when ready to consume, remove the lid and stir the oats. If the consistency is too thick, add a small amount of milk to reach your preferred texture.
  4. Garnish with additional fresh berries and enjoy. These oats can be eaten directly from the jar or transferred to a bowl for serving.
