- ½ cup old-fashioned oats
- ½ cup low-fat milk
- ⅓ cup low-fat vanilla Greek yogurt
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- 1Mix the old-fashioned oats, milk, vanilla Greek yogurt, and ground cinnamon together in a small bowl or a glass jar until fully blended. Stirring well ensures the oats absorb the liquid evenly.
- 2Seal the container tightly and chill in the refrigerator for a minimum of six hours or overnight. This resting time allows the oats to soften and thicken into a creamy texture.
Notes
- Storage: Consume the prepared oats within 24 hours for the best texture and flavor.
- Serving: Top with fresh fruit, chopped nuts, or seeds right before eating so they stay crisp.
- Make ahead: You can prep several jars at once for a few days of grab-and-go breakfasts, though the oats will continue to soften.
