Honey-cinnamon overnight oats are a delicious and healthy breakfast option that's perfect for busy mornings. This recipe combines the warmth of cinnamon with the sweetness of honey, all mixed with the nutritious benefits of oats, chia seeds, and almond milk. It's easy to prepare the night before, making your mornings hassle-free!
Instructions:
- In a medium-sized bowl or a mason jar, combine 1/2 cup oats and 1/2 tablespoon chia seeds.
- Pour in 2/3 cup almond milk into the bowl with dry ingredients.
- Add 1/2 tablespoon honey for sweetness.
- Stir in 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon for added flavor.
- Add a pinch of salt (or to taste) instead of the originally listed 1 tablespoon. Mixing well can help uniformly distribute the flavor.
- Mix all ingredients thoroughly to ensure the oats and chia seeds are well coated with the liquid mixture.
- Cover the bowl or mason jar with a lid or plastic wrap.
- Place it in the refrigerator and let it sit overnight, at least 6-8 hours, to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and flavors.
- In the morning, give the oats a good stir. You can eat them cold, straight from the refrigerator, or warm them up in the microwave if you prefer a warm breakfast.
- Optional: Top with fresh fruit, nuts, or a drizzle of additional honey before serving.
Tips:
- Use rolled oats instead of instant oats for a better texture.
- Ensure you stir all the ingredients well to avoid clumps of chia seeds.
- For added flavor, try adding a pinch of nutmeg or a tablespoon of your favorite nut butter.
- Store the overnight oats in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- If you prefer a thicker consistency, reduce the almond milk slightly or add more chia seeds.
Enjoy your sweet and wholesome honey-cinnamon overnight oats topped with fresh fruits, nuts, or a sprinkle of extra cinnamon. This nutritious meal will surely kickstart your day with energy and satisfaction. Keep experimenting with different toppings to find your perfect combination.
