Description
A creamy, no-cook breakfast that tastes like a classic cinnamon roll. Prep in minutes for a ready-to-eat morning meal.
Ingredients
Scale
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup milk of choice (dairy or non-dairy)
1/2 cup plain yogurt or plant-based yogurt
2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Optional toppings: chopped nuts, raisins, or additional maple syrup
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl or jar, combine the rolled oats, milk, yogurt, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir well to combine.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the jar or bowl and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours, allowing the oats to absorb the liquid and soften.
- Serve: In the morning, give the oats a good stir. Add your favorite toppings, such as chopped nuts or raisins, and drizzle with extra maple syrup if desired. Enjoy cold or warm them up in the microwave.
Notes
- For a thicker consistency, add 1 tablespoon chia seeds during prep. For a drinkable version, blend finished oats with extra milk. Keeps well in fridge for up to 5 days.
