Overnight Oats

Course Breakfast

Prep Time 10 minutes minutes

Cook Time 0 minutes minutes

Servings 2

Ingredients

• 1 cup rolled oats
• 2 cups milk or yogurt your choice
• 1 cup mixed fruits such as berries, bananas, apples, chopped
• 1/2 cup mixed nuts such as almonds, walnuts, pecans, chopped
• 2 tablespoons honey or to taste

Instructions

• Mix Oats and Milk/Yogurt: In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats with your choice of milk or yogurt. Stir until the oats are fully immersed in the liquid.
• Incorporate Fruits and Nuts: Fold in half of the chopped fruits and nuts into the oat mixture, allowing them to blend flavors overnight.
• Add Honey: Pour honey over the mixture and stir well, ensuring it’s evenly distributed for a balanced sweetness.
• Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator overnight, or for a minimum of 6-8 hours. This duration lets the oats absorb the liquid and soften, while the flavors meld together.
• Add Fresh Toppings: Before serving, stir the oat mixture. If it seems too thick, adjust the consistency with a bit more milk or yogurt. Top each serving with the remaining fresh fruits and nuts.

Notes

Additional Garnishes: Optional toppings can include a sprinkle of cinnamon, a dollop of nut butter, or extra honey tailored to your taste.
