Breakfast Parfait of Overnight Oats, Chia, and Fruit

There are a bazillion different overnight oats recipes out there, but I really like this one! It has some Greek yogurt in it for a little extra protein, and I like how thick the oats become along with the Chia seeds. Variations are endless, of course. You don’t have to layer it into a glass, but it certainly looks pretty if you do!

Ingredients

None
2 servings
  1. 1 cuprolled oats (not instant oats)
  2. 2 Tablespoonschia seeds
  3. Pinchsalt
  4. 1/4 cupplain Greek yogurt
  5. 3/4 cupmilk
  6. 1/4 teaspoonvanilla extract
  7. 2 teaspoonshoney (or maple syrup or a sweetener of your choice), plus more to taste

Cooking Instructions

None
  1. 1

    Gather the ingredients. Not pictured is the sweetener. I chose to use honey this time.

  2. 2

    Combine all the ingredients (except the fruit) in a bowl.

  3. 3

    Mix well.

  4. 4

    Transfer the mixture to a container with a lid. Refrigerate overnight (or at least 4 hours).

  5. 5

    Scoop a dollop of the oat mixture into a bowl (or a parfait glass). You can thin it with a little milk if you don’t like it that thick.
    Add a layer of chopped fruit of your choice. Today, I used a berry mixture. Alternate layers of oats and fruit.

  6. 6

    Add additional sweetener to taste.
    You can also warm the oat mixture, if you prefer.
    Leftover oat mixture will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days.

  7. 7

    Notes:
    🥛. If you don’t like cow’s milk, you can use almond milk, cashew milk, oat milk, etc.
    🥛 If you don’t like yogurt, omit it and use a little more milk instead.
