Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup almond milk (or any milk of choice)

1 tablespoon chia seeds

1 tablespoon flaxseeds

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (for sweetness)

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

¼ teaspoon cinnamon

¼ cup Greek yogurt (optional for extra creaminess)

½ banana, sliced

¼ cup mixed berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)

2 tablespoons nut butter (like almond or peanut butter)

A pinch of sea salt

Toppings: additional fresh fruit, nuts, or seeds as desired

Instructions
 

In a medium-sized bowl or a mason jar, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, chia seeds, flaxseeds, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sea salt. Stir well to combine.

    If using Greek yogurt, mix it in at this stage to create a creamier texture.

      Add the sliced banana and mixed berries into the mixture and gently fold them in.

        Cover the bowl or seal the mason jar with a lid, and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours) to let the oats absorb the liquid and soften.

          In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick, feel free to add a splash more of almond milk to achieve your desired consistency.

            Top your oats with a generous dollop of nut butter, more fresh fruit, and any additional toppings you desire before serving. Enjoy your nutritious and power-packed breakfast!
