Overnight Oat Base

  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats old fashioned
  • 1 1/2 cups milk dairy or plant based
  • 1/2 cup brewed coffee cooled
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup adjust sweetness
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract optional
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds for extra creaminess

  • 1/4 cup berries fresh
  • 2 tbsp chopped nuts any variety
  • 2 tbsp granola for crunch

Instructions
 

  • Whisk milk, coffee, maple syrup, and vanilla until smooth and fully combined.
  • Stir in oats and chia seeds until coated. The mixture should look creamy and evenly mixed.
  • Divide into jars, cover, and refrigerate overnight until thick with a soft, spoonable texture.

Notes

For softer oats add a splash of extra milk. Reduce liquid slightly for a firmer texture with more bite. Freeze portions for quick breakfasts and thaw overnight before serving. Add toppings after assembly to keep them crisp. Customize flavors with cinnamon, cocoa, or caramel. Store covered for up to five days.
