Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup unsweetened milk (almond, oat, or dairy)
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt

Flavoring & Mix-ins

  • 2 tsp matcha powder
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 2 tsp maple syrup or honey
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Fruit & Toppings

  • 1/2 cup diced fresh strawberries (plus more for topping)
  • Optional toppings: shredded coconut, additional matcha powder

Instructions

  1. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl or jar, whisk together the unsweetened milk, plain Greek yogurt, matcha powder, maple syrup (or honey), cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  2. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the rolled oats, chia seeds, and diced fresh strawberries to the wet mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  3. Refrigerate: Cover the bowl or jar and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the oats and chia seeds to soak and absorb the liquids, softening them and blending the flavors.
  4. Stir and Adjust: In the morning, give the soaked oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick, adjust the consistency by adding extra milk to reach your desired texture.
  5. Serve with Toppings: Top the overnight oats with additional fresh strawberries, shredded coconut, or a sprinkle of matcha powder. Serve chilled for a refreshing and energizing breakfast.

Notes

  • Use dairy or plant-based milk according to your preference; almond, oat, or regular milk all work nicely.
  • Maple syrup and honey can be used interchangeably to sweeten the oats.
  • Adding chia seeds boosts fiber and omega-3 fatty acids in the recipe.
  • Overnight oats can be prepared up to 2 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
  • For a vegan version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt alternative.
  • Feel free to swap strawberries with other fresh fruits like blueberries or raspberries.
