Ingredients:
- 1 cup (90g) old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup (240ml) unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 cup (125g) plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp (12g) chia seeds
- 1.5 tbsp (30g) maple syrup
- 1 tsp (5ml) pure vanilla extract
- 0.125 tsp sea salt
- 0.75 cup (110g) fresh blueberries
- 0.5 tsp lemon zest
- 0.25 cup (15g) unsweetened coconut flakes
- 0.125 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions:
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the almond milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt until the mixture is smooth and emulsified.
- Fold in the rolled oats and chia seeds. Stir vigorously for at least 30 seconds to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed and won't clump.
- Take half of the blueberries and lightly press them with a fork to release their juices. Fold the crushed berries, whole berries, and lemon zest into the oat mixture.
- Portion the mixture into two 12-oz wide-mouth Mason jars. Seal and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight to allow the grains to hydrate.
- In a small non-stick skillet over medium-low heat, toast the coconut flakes and cinnamon for 3-5 minutes until golden brown. Store at room temperature and top the oats just before serving to maintain the crunch.
