Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup Rolled Oats
  • 1 tablespoon Chia Seeds
  • 1 shot Cooled Espresso or Strong Brewed Coffee
  • ½ cup Milk of Choice
  • ¼ cup Greek Yogurt plain, unsweetened
  • 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup or Honey
  • ½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 pinch Sea Salt

Equipment

  • Mason Jar (16 oz)
  • stirring spoon,

Method
 

  1. Brew your espresso or strong coffee and let it cool completely. Using hot coffee will start to cook the oats, which can result in a gummy texture.
  2. In a medium bowl or directly in your mason jar, add the rolled oats, chia seeds, and the pinch of sea salt. Give them a quick stir to combine everything evenly.
  3. Pour in the cooled espresso, your milk of choice, the Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
  4. Using a spoon, stir everything together thoroughly until it’s completely combined. Make sure you scrape the bottom of the jar to ensure there are no dry pockets of oats.
  5. Seal your jar or container with a lid and place it in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, but preferably overnight.
  6. The next morning, give the oats a good stir. If they seem too thick for your liking, you can add another splash of milk to loosen them up. Top with your favorite additions and enjoy.
