Overnight Oat Chia Pudding: Healthy Breakfast Recipe
Healthy and delicious breakfast pudding made with rolled oats, chia seeds, yogurt, and milk. Perfect for a nutritious start to your day.
Ingredients
- ½ cup Rolled Oats
- ¾ cup Almond Milk or your favorite milk
- ¼ cup Greek Yogurt
- 1 ½ tablespoons Chia Seeds
- 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup
- ¼ teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
Optional Toppings
- Fresh berries banana slices, or apple chunks
- Crushed nuts like almonds or walnuts
- A dollop of almond or peanut butter
- Shredded coconut for a tropical twist
Instructions
- Mix It All Together: Grab a jar or container with a lid. Throw in your rolled oats, chia seeds, almond milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and cinnamon. Give it a good stir (or shake if you’re feeling fancy) until everything is well combined.
- Let It Rest: Pop the container in the fridge and let the magic happen. The chia seeds will plump up, the oats will soften, and the flavors will meld together. Aim for at least 8 hours, but it can stay chilled for up to 72 hours if you want to prep ahead.
- Top & Enjoy: When you’re ready to dig in, give the pudding a quick stir. If it’s too thick, splash in a little more milk to loosen it up. Then, go wild with your toppings. A handful of fresh fruit or a drizzle of nut butter can take this from good to chef’s kiss amazing.
Notes
- If your oats are too thick when you remove them from the fridge, add a few more tablespoons of milk and stir.
- Optional toppings include fresh fruit, nuts, nut butter, and shredded coconut.
