Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl or jar
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons
  • Spoon for mixing
  • 1-cup mason jars or small serving bowls for dividing
  • Plastic wrap or beeswax wrap to cover

Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats organic, sprouted preferred
  • 1.5 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1.5 tablespoon maple syrup or adjust to taste
  • pinch sea salt

Toppings:

  • ¼ cup Blackberries
  • ¼ cup Raspberries
  • 1 tsps Coconut Shreds

Instructions

  • Mix Ingredients: In a large jar or mixing bowl, stir the rolled oats, chia seeds, creamy coconut milk, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt until they are fully combined.
  • Chill: Seal the bowl with a tight lid or wrap and let the mixture rest in the fridge overnight, or for a minimum of 6 hours. This allows the mixture to thicken and the flavors to meld.
  • Morning Prep: Give your oats a good stir to check the consistency the next morning. If it's too thick, a little more coconut milk can create the creaminess you desire.
  • Top Oats & Enjoy: Dish out the oats into jars or bowls and top with blackberries, raspberries, and coconut shreds.
