This delicious breakfast is endlessly customizable, once you know how to make overnight oats you can try different ingredients like cocoa powder, vanilla extract, nuts, seeds and fresh fruit.....
We explain how to prepare the Oatmeal and we detail four variations...Try them and then try other variations according to your tastes!
How to make oatmeal the night before
Chia seeds give Oats a delicious thick and creamy, pudding-like texture and also add protein, fiber and healthy fats.
You can also add Greek yogurt, more protein, which makes the oatmeal even creamier.
Place the oats, the Chia seeds, the honey (optional), a "pinch" of salt and the yogurt (optional), in a container or jar with a lid.
Pour in the milk (almond, cow, soy...) and stir everything well to combine it evenly. You can add vegan protein... it will give you extra energy!
Make sure there are no chia seeds clumping around the bottom or sides of the jar.
Replace the lid and store overnight, or up to 5 days, in the refrigerator.
When ready to eat, stir the oats together and prepare to mix them with whatever ingredients you like.
