Description
A blissful morning ritual featuring creamy oats, juicy blueberries, and nutritious chia seeds, perfect for a quick breakfast.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups almond milk
- 1/2 cup coconut yogurt
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1/2 cup sugar (or to taste)
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, almond milk, coconut yogurt, chia seeds, lemon zest, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
- In a small saucepan, over low heat, combine the blueberries and sugar. Gently stir until the blueberries break down and form a warm compote—about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
- In a jar or container, layer the oat mixture, then top it with the warm blueberry compote.
- Cover the jar and refrigerate overnight, allowing the oats to absorb all the flavors and thicken.
- Enjoy chilled, either as a breakfast or a delightful dessert!
Notes
Avoid overmixing the base to maintain the texture of the oats. The blueberry compote can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for up to a week.
