Overnight Oats

Overnight oats are a great, nutritious, go-to-breakfast option as you can just prepare them ahead and takes only a few minutes. You can also add whatever toppings you enjoy like fruits, nut butter, nuts, and seeds.

For our recipe, we have used the Pascual Vive Soy Oat Milk provided to us by one of our partners, Sosun Fihaara. This 100% plant-based oat drink is high in calcium and vitamins D and B12. This is suitable for those who are lactose intolerant and allergic to cow’s milk protein. You can also use it to prepare a variety of other drinks and desserts.

Serving size: 2

Ingredients:

For the oats

• 2/3 cup oat flakes/rolled oats
• 2/3 cup Pascual Vive Soy Oat Milk
• 1/3 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 ½ tsp chia seeds
• ¼ tsp vanilla essence

For topping

• 10 blueberries
• 6 slices of banana
• 4 chopped strawberries
• 2 chopped dates

Instructions:

1. To a small bowl, add 2/3 cup oat flakes/rolled oats, 2/3 cup Pascual Vive Soy Oat Milk, 1/3 cup vanilla Greek yogurt, 2 tbsp honey, 1 ½ tsp chia seeds and ¼ tsp vanilla essence. Mix everything together using a spoon.
2. Distribute the oat mixture into two small jars/glasses. We used 2 glasses of around 3-inches wide and 3-inch in depth.
3. Top each glass with 5 blueberries, 3 slices of banana, 2 chopped strawberries, and 1 chopped date. You can substitute with any fruits or nuts of your choice.
4. Cover the glasses with food wrap or a lid. Place them in the refrigerator for 12 hours or overnight. These are good to keep in the refrigerator for 3-5 days. If you plan to keep it for that long, we would recommend adding the toppings right before serving, so the flavours are still fresh.
