This is an easy recipe to make and is healthy, too! If you plan to make enough for multiple jars, you may want to consider mixing your ingredients in a bowl first, then pour it into containers before putting them in the fridge to soak.
Substitutions:
- any type of milk can be used
- flavored Greek yogurt can be used
- applesauce or smashed banana can replace Greek yogurt (other ingredients may apply)
- honey can be substituted with maple syrup, syrup of your choice or a homemade simple syrup. It can also be omitted from the recipe as well
- chia seeds can be omitted from the recipe
Chia seeds are best when soaked overnight (8-12 hours).
Once this is made, consume within 4-5 days. Careful not to leave them out for too long on days you plan to have them for lunch.
This dish is versatile, & can be eaten for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, & can even be prepared as a dessert.

Instructions
Step 1
Add the dry ingredients first to your container of choice.


Step 2
Add the rest of the ingredients on top then gently mix it all together.


Step 3
Let sit in the fridge for at least two hours before consuming. Keep any uneaten overnight oats in the fridge until you plan on eating them; they’ll be good for 4-5 days. Refrain from leaving prepped oats out of the fridge for too long to avoid spoiling.
