Calories: 237kcal
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups Gluten-Free Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
- 1 (14-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk or non-dairy milk of choice*
- 3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger
- 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 pinch allspice less than 1/8 tsp
- 1 pinch ground cardamom less than 1/8 tsp
- Pinch sea salt
- ½ vanilla bean scraped
- 2 to 4 Tbsp pure maple syrup plus more for serving, to taste
Optional Additions:
- 1 Tbsp chia seeds see note
- 2 to 4 Tbsp protein powder of choice
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients for the overnight oats to a large jar. Note: if you're making a big batch of overnight oatmeal and you don't have a large enough jar, use a large mixing bowl to prepare the oats.
- Secure the lid on the jar and shake well until everything is combined.
- Refrigerate overnight (or at least 3 hours).
- When ready to serve, stir well and taste for flavor. Add more pure maple syrup, and/or cinnamon to taste. Serve with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, nuts, and seeds.
Notes
If adding chia seeds or flax seeds, also add an additional ½ cup of liquid (water, or milk of choice).
If you have a chai spice blend already, you can use 1 ½ teaspoons in this recipe rather than using all of the individual spices I call out.
