Ingredients

  • 1 cup steel cut oats
  • 1 1/2 cups almond milk or your milk of choice
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Banana Nut

  • 1/2 banana
  • 2 tablespoons of peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon of chopped pecan

Pina Colada

  • 1/3 cup chopped pineapple
  • 1 tablespoons toasted coconut

Almond Blueberry

  • 1/4 cup blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon flax seed
  • 2 tablespoons sliced almonds

Mixed Berry

  • 1/4 cup blackberries
  • 1/4 cup raspberries

 

    Instructions

    • In an airtight container, add the oats, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt.  Stir to combine, cover, and refrigerate overnight, stirring a couple of times.
    • On the second day, add about 1/4 cup of fruit, nuts, or seeds to a mason jar.  Spoon in a 1/4 cup overnight oats and top with more fruit. Cover the jars with the lids and refrigerate them one more night.

    Notes

    • If you prefer rolled oats in your oatmeal, mix the rolled oats in place of the steel-cut oats. Jump to the second day when you fill the mason jars with fruit, nuts, seed, and the mixed oats.  Cover and refrigerate for one night.
    • The nutritional information is just for the overnight oats.
