Basically, all you need is oats and milk to make overnight oats . Greek yogurt, chia seeds, sweetener, and vanilla extract are highly recommended additions to enhance the taste and texture.
Basic ingredients for preparing overnight oats
Oatmeal: This is really the main ingredient. Make sure to use traditional oatmeal (not instant) as it will have a better consistency. You can also opt for gluten-free oatmeal.
Milk: For the liquid part, you can even use water! But milk is more commonly used. You can choose whole or low-fat milk. Plant-based alternatives like almond, coconut, cashew, or oat milk also work perfectly.
Chia seeds (optional): Rich in nutrients, they will give it a texture close to pudding.
Greek or vegan yogurt (optional): It adds a tangy touch, a creamy texture and extra protein.
Vanilla extract (optional): It enhances all the flavors and adds a sweet note of sweetness without the need for sweetener.
Sweetener (optional): Use honey or maple syrup to sweeten the mixture, as oats alone can be a little bland.
Toppings: This is where you can get fun: fresh fruit, dried fruit, nut butters, seeds, spices (like cinnamon). There are so many ideas and combinations of toppings, which makes this recipe versatile and creative!
It’s all about proportions to get the perfect consistency. Try the suggested ratio, then adjust the amount of milk to your preference. Once you’ve mastered it, get creative with the flavors and toppings!
The ration for the basic recipe:
The recommended ratio for overnight oats , using only oats and liquid, is usually 1:1 . This means one part oatmeal to one part liquid.
For example: ½ cup of oats to ½ cup of milk or water.
You can adjust this ratio by adding more or less liquid depending on the desired consistency.
Recipe :
1. Mix the base ingredients : Start by combining regular rolled oats, chia seeds, Greek or vegan yogurt, and vanilla extract. If you want to sweeten, add your sweetener at this point.
2. Add milk : Top up with the milk of your choice.
3. Mix well : Stir the mixture until there are no lumps.
4. Refrigerate : Seal the jar tightly or cover it and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.
5. The next morning, all you have to do is take a spoon, add your favorite toppings and enjoy.
