This easy-to-make recipe blends the wholesome flavors of multi-grain oatmeal, buckwheat flour, and spices, along with fresh fruit and nuts, to give you a hearty and energy-boosting meal to kickstart your day.

Ingredients:

5 cups water
1180g
1 cup buckwheat flour
170g
1 cup multi-grain oatmeal
80g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4.20g
3 tsp cinnamon
8g
1/2 tsp cardamom
1g
1 dash salt
0.40g
1/2 cup blueberries
77g
1 banana
120g
1 cup almonds
140g
5 tbsp maple syrup
100g
1 cup almond milk
240g

Instructions:

1. Prepping the Mixture:
- In a large pot, bring 5 cups of water to a boil over high heat.
- Stir in buckwheat flour and multi-grain oatmeal, ensuring they dissolve and there are no lumps.
2. Flavoring the Mixture:
- Once the mixture begins to thicken, reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Add vanilla extract, cinnamon, cardamom, and a dash of salt. Stir to combine, letting the flavors meld together.
3. Let it Cook:
- Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Once the grains have softened, remove the pot from heat.
4. Preparing the Almonds:
- While the grain mixture cools slightly, roughly chop the almonds. You can toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 5 minutes if you prefer a nuttier flavor, but this step is optional.
5. Incorporating the Fruits and Nuts:
- Slice the banana and add the slices along with the blueberries and chopped almonds into the grain mixture. Stir well.
6. Sweetening and Creaminess:
- Add the maple syrup and almond milk, stirring until everything is well incorporated. Adjust the sweetness according to your taste.
7. Setting Overnight:
- Transfer the mixture to a large bowl or divide into individual serving jars or bowls.
- Cover and place in the refrigerator overnight to let the flavors develop and the texture thicken.
8. Serving:
- In the morning, remove from the refrigerator.
- You can enjoy it cold right out of the fridge or reheat it in the microwave or on the stove until warmed to your liking.
- Optional: Top with additional fresh fruits, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a sprinkle of nuts before serving.

Tips:

- For a creamier texture, you can soak the buckwheat and oats in the refrigerator overnight.

- Feel free to substitute almond milk with any other plant-based milk of your choice.

- Add a scoop of protein powder to make this breakfast even more filling and nutritious.

- Top with your favorite fresh or dried fruits for added flavor and variety.

- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to three days for a quick breakfast option.

With this simple and nutritious Overnight Buckwheat and Oats recipe, you can enjoy a wholesome breakfast that is both easy to prepare and incredibly satisfying. Incorporating these tips can further customize the recipe to your taste and dietary needs, making it a versatile addition to your morning routine.
