Overnight Oats with Berries Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 cup rolled oats
• 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
• 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (optional)
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
• 1–2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup mixed fresh berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)
• 2 tablespoons chopped nuts or seeds (optional, for topping)

Instructions

1. Mix the Base:
   In a jar or bowl, combine oats, milk, Greek yogurt (if using), chia seeds, honey or syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir well to mix everything together.
2. Add the Berries:
   Fold in half of the fresh berries. Reserve the rest for topping in the morning.
3. Chill Overnight:
   Cover the jar or bowl and refrigerate overnight (or at least 4 hours), allowing the oats to absorb the liquid and soften.
4. Serve:
   In the morning, give the oats a good stir. Top with remaining berries and chopped nuts or seeds if desired. Enjoy cold, straight from the fridge!
