Mornings can be hectic—this Vibrant Berry & Chia Overnight Oats offers no-cook convenience, balanced macros, and bursts of natural sweetness.
Experience & Expertise:
I refined the milk-to-oat ratio for creaminess without sogginess and learned the optimal berry mix for texture contrast.
Ingredients (serves 2):
1 cup rolled oats
2 tbsp chia seeds
1 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
½ cup Greek yogurt
1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
Steps:
Combine base: In jar, stir oats, chia, milk, yogurt, and sweetener until evenly mixed.
Add fruit: Gently fold in half the berries, reserving rest for topping.
Refrigerate: Cover and chill overnight (8 hrs).
Serve: Top with remaining berries, nuts, or coconut flakes.
