Overnight oats are typically made with chia seeds because they help provide a thick texture by soaking up the plant-based milk. But they are completely optional and can just as easily be made with flaxseed or achia seed alternative. These Overnight Oats without Chia Seeds are made with minimal ingredients and are just as delicious!
Add the old-fashioned oats, plant-based milk, plant-based yogurt, ground flaxseed, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt into a jar or container that has a lid.
Stir well to combine and seal the lid tight. Place in the fridge overnight or for at least 2 hours. Overnight is best.
Notes
Use the appropriate jar: An 8oz jar will be filled to the top with oats and the toppings will overflow a bit so the jar won't close whereas a 16oz jar will allow room for toppings and the lid to close. The 16ozjar is preferred if you're taking the oats on the go.This recipe makes 2 small servings or 1 large serving.
