A quick and nourishing overnight oats recipe combining creamy oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, and mixed berries for a perfect healthy breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (90g) rolled oats
  • 2 tablespoons (20g) chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup (240ml) milk of choice (unsweetened almond milk, oat milk, or dairy milk)
  • ½ cup (120g) Greek yogurt (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup (75g) mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
  • Pinch of sea salt

Instructions

  1. Combine dry ingredients: In a mixing bowl, stir together rolled oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, and sea salt.
  2. Add wet ingredients: Pour in milk, Greek yogurt if using, maple syrup or honey, and vanilla extract. Whisk gently until combined and smooth.
  3. Portion into jars: Divide mixture evenly between two 12-ounce (350ml) mason jars or containers, leaving space for berries and stirring.
  4. Top with berries: Add mixed berries on top of each jar. No need to thaw frozen berries.
  5. Seal and refrigerate: Screw on lids tightly and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, ideally overnight.
  6. Serve and enjoy: Stir the oats and berries before eating. Add a splash of milk if too thick.

Notes

Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture. Adjust milk quantity for preferred thickness. Frozen berries thaw overnight but may make oats slightly runnier. Stir well before refrigerating to avoid clumps. Store in fridge up to 4 days. Can batch prep multiple jars for the week.
