Overnight oats are prepared by soaking oats in milk and yogurt until soft and creamy. Berries add natural sweetness and freshness, while chia seeds contribute extra fibre and texture.
Use plain unsweetened yogurt and let the berries provide most of the sweetness. Add honey only if needed after tasting the oats.
Add the oats, milk, yogurt, chia seeds and vanilla to a jar or container.
Stir in half of the berries, lightly crushing a few pieces if you want more berry flavour throughout.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight until the oats are soft and creamy.
Stir before serving. Add a small splash of milk if you prefer a thinner consistency.
Top with the remaining berries and any optional nuts or seeds. Add a little honey only if extra sweetness is needed.
Values are estimates and can vary depending on ingredients, brands and portion sizes used.
Check milk, yogurt and nut ingredients if you have food allergies or dietary restrictions. Adjust portions and toppings according to your individual needs.
