This is a fantastic method for a quick, healthy and even on-the-go breakfast–we often have this when we have an early-morning swim meet or race. Chia is known for improving speed, so I love having that in as well.
I don’t always measure, but here is roughly what I start with:
| 4 | cup | rolled oats |
| 6 | cup | unsweetened plant-based milk |
| 1⁄2 | cup | chia seeds |
| 4 | cup | frozen berries or fresh |
| 1 | cup | nut butter |
| 8 | teaspoon | honey (optional) |
| 4 | teaspoon | cinnamon (optional) |
Since using almost an entire container of almond milk can get expensive, I have started blended equivalent amounts of water with the nut butter, cinnamon, honey and vanilla and using that in place of the almond milk.
Simply mix all ingredients together in a large container and refrigerate overnight. The liquid will soften the oats and chia. Stir and add additional liquid or sweetener as desired before serving.
Spoon into small jars or containers for an easy on-the-go breakfast!
