Instructions

  1. In a 10-ounce or 12-ounce mason jar, pour in the milk.
  2. Add oats and your all-natural sweetener of choice (pure maple syrup or honey).
  3. Add in the remaining add-ins: vanilla Greek yogurt, raspberries, lemon zest, and sliced almonds for this version.
  4. Screw on the lid tightly and shake. Set in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours and up to 3-5 days.
  5. When ready to eat, you can eat it cold or warm. Here’s how to serve it:

Serve Cold: Shake the jar. Stir in a little extra milk if it’s too thick and more sweetener if you’d like. Grab a spoon and eat your oats cold. This is the perfect solution for those mornings when you’re on the run!

Serve Warm: This is our preferred way to serve overnight oats. Shake the jar and then remove the lid. Warm the oats in the microwave for about 45 seconds. Stir. Add in more milk or sweetener, as needed. Warm up even more, if desired.


Notes/Tips

*While oats are naturally gluten-free, oftentimes they’re processed in a factory where cross-contamination can happen. Look for a “certified gluten-free” label on your oats, if avoiding all gluten is important to you.
