About this recipe

The easiest, most reliable overnight oats you'll ever make. Creamy, satisfying, and endlessly customizable, this no-cook breakfast comes together in 5 minutes the night before and is ready to grab straight from the fridge in the morning. Made with just a handful of pantry staples, it's a wholesome meal-prep staple that keeps you full all morning long.

Instructions

1. 1

   Add the rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt to a quart jar or airtight container. Give everything a thorough stir so the chia seeds are evenly distributed and not clumped together.

2. 2

   Seal the jar with a lid and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight. The rolled oats and chia seeds will absorb the liquid and thicken into a creamy, pudding-like texture.

3. 3

   In the morning, give the rolled oats a good stir. If they seem too thick for your liking, splash in a little extra milk and stir until you reach your preferred consistency.

4. 4

   Taste and adjust — add a little more maple syrup if you'd like it sweeter. Serve cold straight from the jar, or let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes if you prefer it less chilled.

5. 5

   Top with fresh berries, a drizzle of nut butter, and a sprinkle of granola right before eating so the granola stays crunchy. Enjoy immediately.
