Main Ingredients

  • ½ cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • ⅔ cup milk dairy or dairy free
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar light or dark, packed
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions
 

Cooking

  • Combine dry ingredients. In a jar, stir together the oats, chia seeds, brown sugar, and salt.
  • Add liquids. Pour in the milk and vanilla. Stir well, scraping the bottom of the jar.
  • Stir once more. After 5 to 10 minutes, stir again so the chia seeds do not clump.
  • Chill. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight, until thick and creamy.
  • Finish. Stir, add a splash of milk if needed, and top with fruit or nuts.

Notes

Substitutions: Use any milk you like, and swap maple syrup for the brown sugar if you prefer.
Tips: Stir twice early on so the chia seeds spread evenly.
Storage: Refrigerate covered for 3 to 4 days. Add toppings just before eating.
