Base Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk (cow’s milk, almond milk, or any other milk of choice)
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
Sweeteners and Flavorings
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
Toppings (Optional)
- Fresh fruit (such as banana slices, berries)

Instructions
- Combine base ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl or jar, combine the rolled oats, milk, and Greek yogurt. Stir well until the oats are fully coated in the liquid.
- Add sweeteners and flavorings: Add in the maple syrup, brown sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir again to ensure all ingredients are well mixed.
- Refrigerate to soak: Cover the bowl or jar with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, but ideally overnight, to allow the oats to soak up the liquid and flavors.
- Adjust consistency: In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If they’re thicker than you prefer, add a splash of milk to loosen the consistency.
- Serve and top: Serve the oats cold, topped with your choice of fresh fruit, nuts, or seeds for added texture and nutritional benefits.
