Ingredients
1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (not instant)
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1/2 cup milk of choice (dairy or non-dairy)
1/4 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
1-2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)
Pinch of salt
Instructions
Step 1: In a pint-sized mason jar or small container with a lid, combine the rolled oats and chia seeds.
Step 2: Add the milk, blueberries, maple syrup (or honey), and a pinch of salt to the jar.
Step 3: Stir all ingredients thoroughly until well combined. Ensure no clumps of chia seeds remain and blueberries are evenly distributed.
Step 4: Cover the jar tightly with its lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the oats and chia seeds to soak and thicken.
Step 5: In the morning, give the blueberry overnight oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash more milk to reach your desired consistency. Top with additional fresh blueberries, nuts, granola, or a drizzle of extra maple syrup if desired, and enjoy cold.
Notes
For best results, let the oats soak overnight. You can customize sweetness and milk type to your preference. Adding a tiny pinch of salt enhances all the flavors!
