Ingredients
Oat base
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats about 90 g; do not use instant oats
- 1 cup milk 240 ml
- 0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt about 120 g
- 2 tsp maple syrup adjust to taste after chilling
- 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
- 0.5 tsp vanilla extract
To serve
- 1 cup mixed fresh blueberries and sliced strawberries about 150 g total, washed
Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- Whisk or fork
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Two lidded jars
Instructions
Mix, chill and serve
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, cinnamon and vanilla until smooth. Stir in the old-fashioned rolled oats so every flake is coated.
- Divide between two clean lidded jars. Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight at 40°F (4°C) or below.
- Stir each chilled jar. If the oats are thicker than you like, stir in a small splash of milk. Top with the washed blueberries and sliced strawberries just before serving. Keep refrigerated until ready to eat.
Notes
Use old-fashioned rolled oats for texture; instant oats soften much faster. Mix the yogurt and milk first, chill the dairy base at 40°F (4°C) or below and add berries at serving. The estimated cost depends on local prices.
