Making this overnight oats recipe

What are overnight oats?

Overnight oats are a mix of rolled oats with almond milk, coconut milk or regular milk and are eaten cold. They’re mixed with spices such as cinnamon, fresh or dried fruit and sometimes even chocolate for something extra indulgent.

To make overnight oats just put everything into a mason jar, give it a mix and let it chill overnight in the fridge. The oats soak up all the flavors and are ready to go in the morning!

Tips for the BEST overnight oats

Leave overnight oats in the refrigerator for a minimum of 6 hours (but overnight is best).
You can replace the almond milk for any type of milk.
If you prefer a thicker consistency, lessen the amount of almond milk. If you’d like a light consistency then add an extra 1/4 cup of milk or omit the greek yogurt!
You can always add more almond milk in the morning to adjust the consistency.
Add fresh or dried fruit and top with your choice of nuts, seeds, and spices!
Store in mason jars with a lid so they are easy to grab and go.
