Ingredients

Overnight Oats

  • 3 tablespoons almond butter
  • 3 tablespoons real maple syrup (not maple flavored corn syrup)
  • 1 ½ cups  old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 ½ cups vanilla almond milk (or your favorite milk with drop of vanilla added)
  • 1  teaspoon  cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons  black chia seeds

Toppings

  • Banana slices
  • Shredded coconut
  • A pinch of chia seeds
  • reserved almond butter/syrup

Instructions

  • In a small bowl use a fork to blend almond butter and maple syrup until smooth
  • In another bowl mix oats with milk, chia, cinnamon and 3/4 of the maple/almond butter mixture, reserving the rest for topping in the morning
  • Mix well,  separate evenly into two smaller bowls (or mason jars with lids), cover and refrigerate overnight allowing oats to soak up liquid
  • In the morning remove from the fridge, top with banana slices, coconut, reserved maple/almond butter and more chia if desired. (Note: overnight oats are usually served cold, but if you prefer them warm, heat for 30-60 seconds in the microwave, then add toppings)
  • Grab and go, or enjoy at your  leisure!
