Overnight oats are a cold breakfast you prep at night and simply top the next morning. The rolled oats soak up plain yogurt and milk overnight, while chia seeds thicken the mix into a creamy spoonful. They do the work for you by morning, so all that is left is a handful of fresh blueberries, banana slices and chopped walnuts. They also travel well as a grab-and-go jar and keep you full until lunch.

Step by step process

Soaking overnight

1
Start the overnight oats by adding the rolled oats and chia seeds to a jar or a tall glass. Stir them briefly while they are still dry, so the chia is spread evenly through the oats and does not clump later.
2
Pour in the plain yogurt and the milk. Mix everything thoroughly until you get a thick, cohesive porridge with no dry pockets or lumps hiding at the bottom.
TIP:
When soaking chia seeds, stir the mixture regularly to prevent the seeds from clumping and to keep the pudding smooth. If needed, stir after 5-6 minutes and again after 10 minutes.
3
Want it sweeter? Stir in the honey and mix again until smooth, so the sweetener dissolves evenly through the whole mixture.
4
Cover the jar with a lid or a piece of plastic wrap. Chill it for at least 6 hours, ideally overnight, so the oats soften completely and soak up all of the liquid.

Morning assembly

5
In the morning, give the oats a good stir and taste them. If they feel too thick after resting, loosen them with a spoonful of milk or a little extra yogurt until creamy.
6
Peel the banana and slice it into thin rounds. Arrange the slices with a handful of fresh blueberries over the chilled oats.
7
Scatter the chopped walnuts on top for a crunchy contrast. Serve it right away, or seal the jar and take it with you to work or school for later.
