Scale
Base Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Toppings
- 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut, toasted if desired
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl or jar, mix together the rolled oats, unsweetened coconut milk, plain Greek yogurt, chia seeds, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the bowl or jar with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. Let the mixture soak and thicken overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
- Stir and Serve: Before eating, stir the oat mixture again to loosen the texture. Then top with freshly diced ripe mango and sprinkle with shredded coconut to add texture and tropical flavor.
- Enjoy Chilled: Serve the overnight oats chilled, directly from the jar or transfer to a bowl for a refreshing and nutritious breakfast.
Notes
- For added crunch, sprinkle with granola or chopped nuts just before serving.
- This recipe can be prepared up to 3 days in advance, making it ideal for meal prep and busy mornings.
