Ingredients

  • 1 cup steel cut oats
  • 1 ½ tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1 ¾ cups milk of choice
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt Skyr, or dairy-free yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • teaspoon fine sea salt

Instructions

  • Combine: Add all ingredients to large bowl and stir to combine.
  • Refrigerate: Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours.
  • Stir: The next morning, stir before enjoying and add favorite toppings.
  • Serve: To enjoy warm, place desired amount in small saucepan, heating on medium low heat, adding more liquid for preferred consistency. 

Notes

STORAGE - store in a large airtight container for the first day, and then separate into individual portions the next day. The larger volume of liquid helps the oats soak more evenly. The oats will soften as the days go by, but steel cut oats hold their texture for 3-4 days.
