Ingredients

Base

  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup rolled oats

Sweeteners and Flavorings

  • 2 tbsp brown sugar, packed
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp vanilla extract

Toppings

  • 1 tbsp toasted pecans, chopped
  • 1 tbsp toasted walnuts, chopped

Instructions

  1. Combine Milk and Oats: In a small bowl, thoroughly mix the milk and rolled oats to ensure the oats are evenly coated and begin to absorb the liquid.
  2. Add Sweeteners and Spices: Stir in the brown sugar, maple syrup, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until fully incorporated, creating a sweet and fragrant oat base.
  3. Refrigerate Overnight: Divide the mixture evenly into two serving containers. Cover them tightly and place in the refrigerator overnight, or for at least 6 hours, allowing the oats to soften and flavors to meld.
  4. Add Nuts Before Serving: Just before serving, sprinkle the chopped toasted pecans and walnuts on top to add a delightful crunchy texture and nutty flavor.

Notes

  • Use any preferred type of milk such as dairy, almond, or oat milk based on dietary preference.
  • To toast nuts, heat them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes until fragrant, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
  • Overnight oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, making it a convenient meal prep option.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more or less brown sugar and maple syrup according to taste.
  • For extra creaminess, add a spoonful of yogurt or chia seeds before refrigerating.
