Description

A nutrient-dense, creamy, and convenient breakfast solution perfect for busy mornings. This recipe combines protein-rich Greek yogurt and rolled oats with fiber-packed chia seeds, creating a satisfying, pudding-like consistency that requires no cooking. It is a versatile base that can be customized with your choice of milk, seasonal fruits, and natural sweeteners for an energizing start to your day.


Ingredients

Scale

1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup milk of your choice
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup fresh blueberries


Instructions

In a clean mason jar or airtight container, combine the rolled oats, Greek yogurt, milk, chia seeds, honey, and cinnamon.
Stir the mixture thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined and the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Gently fold in or top with the fresh blueberries.
Seal the container and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight.
Remove from the refrigerator, give the oats a quick stir, and serve chilled.

Notes

Use full-fat or 2% Greek yogurt for optimal creaminess. If you prefer a thinner consistency, reduce the chia seeds to one teaspoon. For a dairy-free alternative, substitute the yogurt with coconut yogurt and use almond or oat milk. This dish keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
