Ingredients
 

  • ½ cup Old-Fashioned Oats
  • ½ cup Oat Milk or other plant-based milk
  • 2 tablespoons Espresso or strong coffee
  • 1 tablespoon Chia Seeds
  • 1 tablespoon Almond Butter or other nut butter
  • 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup
  • ½ teaspoon Cinnamon
  • Pinch of Kosher Salt
  • 1-2 tablespoons Vegan Chocolate Chips optional

Instructions

  • Add the old-fashioned oats, oat milk, espresso, chia seeds, almond butter, maple syrup, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt to a jar or container with a lid and stir until well combined.
  • Seal the lid of the jar or container and place it in the refrigerator and let it sit overnight. Alternatively, you can refrigerate it for at least 3-4 hours but leaving it overnight yields the best results.
  • Next day, add any toppings you love and enjoy! I topped mine with shaved chocolate and a dollop of plant-based yogurt.

Notes

This recipe makes 2 small servings or 1 large serving. 
 
Use the appropriate jar: When using an 8-ounce jar, the oats and toppings will fill it to the top, making it difficult to close the lid. But a 16-ounce jar provides enough space for both toppings and the lid to securely close. If you plan on taking the oats with you while on the go, the 16-ounce jar is the preferred choice.
 
Salt your oats! I know this sounds weird but trust me. It will help balance and bring out the flavors and won't make your oatmeal salty.
