Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

2 tablespoons chia seeds

1 cup almond milk (or your choice of milk)

½ cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt)

2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (adjust for sweetness)

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

¼ teaspoon cinnamon

½ cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen: strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

1 tablespoon nut butter (peanut, almond, or cashew)

Toppings: sliced banana, additional berries, nuts, or granola (optional)

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats and chia seeds, mixing them well to ensure they are evenly distributed.

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until fully blended.

      Pour the liquid mixture over the oats and chia seeds, stirring until all oats are well-coated.

        Gently fold in the mixed berries, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture.

          Divide the mixture into individual jars or containers, adding a spoonful of nut butter on top of each serving for a protein boost.

            Seal the containers with lids and refrigerate overnight (at least 6 hours) to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and thicken.

              In the morning, give your overnight oats a good stir. If desired, add a splash more milk for a creamier consistency.

                Top with additional slices of banana, berries, nuts, or granola for extra flavor and crunch before serving.
