Overnight Oats for Breakfast

Overnight Oats for Breakfast
Makes 5 servings

I love this recipe because there is no cooking involved!




Ingredients:
  • 2 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 5 teaspoons chia seeds
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon (you can add other spices too if you like ginger, pumpkin spice, nutmeg, vanilla, almond extract, etc)
  • 5 teaspoons maple syrup
  • 5 tablespoons raisins or cranberries (or 5 cups of fresh or frozen fruit like peaches or blueberries, or 2.5 bananas)
  • 5 tablespoons sliced almonds2 1/2 cups almond or flax milk (save for each night before)




      Directions:

        • Set up your 5 empty 8-ounce mason jar (or any jars for that matter)
        • Divide all the ingredients except for the milk between the five jars. Each jar will have: 1/2 cup oats, 1 teaspoon chia seeds, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 teaspoon maple syrup, 1 tablespoon raisins, and 1 tablespoon sliced almonds. If you want it to look pretty, layer the ingredients in the jars.
        • Screw on the lids securely and store in the fridge or leave out until you use them each day.
        • Each night before bed, add half a cup of almond milk or flax milk to your jar, and refrigerate.
        • In the morning, give it a good stir, top with sliced fruit of your choice (like half a banana or a cup of berries), and enjoy!
