- 1 cup rolled oats go for the classic, not instant
- 1 cup coconut milk full-fat for extra creaminess
- 1 tbsp chia seeds for thickening and fiber
- 1 tbsp maple syrup or your preferred sweetener
- ½ tsp vanilla extract for flavor
- ¼ tsp cinnamon optional but worth it
- Toppings of choice berries, nuts, shredded coconut, etc.
In a jar, mix oats, coconut milk, chia seeds, sweetener, vanilla, and cinnamon.
Stir well to combine. Make sure no chia seeds clump up.
Seal the jar and place it in the fridge overnight.
In the morning, give it a good stir. Add toppings like fruit, nuts, or extra sweetener.
Eat directly from the jar because dishes are overrated.
