Overnight Oats

Mix oats with milk or yoghurt in a jar, add toppings, stir, and refrigerate overnight. This keeps well for up to 4 days, so you can make it in bulk and scoop out portions per day. Eat cold, at room temperature, or microwaved. It takes under 5 minutes to assemble. Use any ratio you prefer, but typically this recipe calls for a 1:1 ratio of oats to liquid. Add mix-ins like chia seeds, fruit, nuts, or sweeteners. This is the perfect option if you don’t wish to cook, especially during a busy morning.
