Overnight Rasberry Almond Oats
1/3 cup old fashion oats* 1/4 tsp flaxseeds 1/4 tsp chia seeds 1/4 tsp wheat germ 1/2 tsp shredded almonds 1/3 cup milk (I use Almond milk) 1/3 cup yogurt 1/4 cup Fruits (fresh or frozen, I usually use frozen berries) Honey (optional).
Ingredients
1/3 cup old fashion oats* 1/4 tsp flaxseeds 1/4 tsp chia seeds 1/4 tsp wheat germ 1/2 tsp shredded almonds 1/3 cup milk (I use Almond milk) 1/3 cup yogurt 1/4 cup Fruits (fresh or frozen, I usually use frozen berries) Honey (optional)
Method
- To build your overnight oat layers, start with adding the oats, flaxseeds, chia seeds, and wheat germ. Then add a layer of shredded almonds to your mason jar (a mason jar is usually available in any kitchen and looks great, but really any Tupperware will do!)
- Pour the milk and yogurt and mix a little to make sure it reaches the bottom and mixes well with the oats.
- If you have frozen fruits, add them now and store in the fridge overnight. Fresh fruit is best added the next day.
- Remove the mason jar from the fridge the next morning and add honey and more shredded almonds.
You can vary the Flavours by swapping the almond/ berry and honey combination with cinnamon/ walnuts and maple syrup, banana and peanut butter, granola or any other crunchy topping with fruits. Shredded coconut and dark chocolate chips makes this a yummy treat for mommy and little ones too! The possibilities are endless... Make, enjoy and repeat :)
