Cooking Instructions for making Breakfast Parfait of Overnight Oats, Chia, and Fruit
Gather the ingredients. Not pictured is the sweetener. I chose to use honey this time.
Combine all the ingredients (except the fruit) in a bowl.
Mix well.
Transfer the mixture to a container with a lid. Refrigerate overnight (or at least 4 hours).
Scoop a dollop of the oat mixture into a bowl (or a parfait glass). You can thin it with a little milk if you don’t like it that thick.
Add a layer of chopped fruit of your choice. Today, I used a berry mixture. Alternate layers of oats and fruit.
Add additional sweetener to taste.
You can also warm the oat mixture, if you prefer.
Leftover oat mixture will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Notes:
🥛. If you don’t like cow’s milk, you can use almond milk, cashew milk, oat milk, etc.
🥛 If you don’t like yogurt, omit it and use a little more milk instead.
