Cherry oats

Cherry fridge oats are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. This make-ahead breakfast combines the creamy texture of almond milk and Greek yogurt with the sweet, tart flavor of cherries, making it a nutritious and convenient option for busy mornings.

Instructions:

1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients and ensure the cherries are pitted and roughly chopped.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine 1/3 cup of oats and 1 tablespoon of chia seeds.
3. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in 1/3 cup of almond milk and stir until the oats and chia seeds are evenly soaked.
4. Sweeten the Mixture: Add 1 teaspoon of honey and 1/2 tablespoon of almond butter. Mix well to ensure the almond butter is thoroughly integrated.
5. Incorporate Greek Yogurt: Fold in 1/3 cup of Greek yogurt. This will add a creamy texture and boost the protein content of your fridge oats.
6. Add Cherries: Gently fold in the 1/2 cup of chopped cherries, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture.
7. Refrigerate: Transfer the mixture into a mason jar or airtight container. Seal the container and place it in the refrigerator. Let it chill overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to soak and expand.
8. Serve: In the morning, give the mixture a good stir. You can add an extra drizzle of honey, a few more cherries, or a sprinkle of nuts on top, if desired.
9. Enjoy: Your cherry fridge oats are now ready to be enjoyed! Serve cold straight from the fridge for a refreshing and nutritious start to your day.

Tips:

- Layer the Ingredients Carefully: When preparing your cherry fridge oats, layer the ingredients carefully. Start with the oats at the bottom to ensure they soak up the liquid properly.

- Fresh or Frozen Cherries: You can use either fresh or frozen cherries for this recipe. If using frozen cherries, there's no need to thaw them before adding them to the mixture.

- Customize Sweetness: Adjust the amount of honey according to your taste preference. You can also use other sweeteners like maple syrup or agave nectar as a substitute.

- Add More Texture: For added crunch, consider mixing in nuts or seeds like almonds, walnuts, or sunflower seeds when serving.

Once your cherry fridge oats have spent the night in the fridge, they will be ready to enjoy. Simply give them a good stir and savor the blend of flavors and textures. This easy-to-make breakfast will not only save you time but also keep you full and energized throughout the morning.
