Description
Creamy and wholesome Healthy Overnight Oats and Chia Seed Pudding made with oats, chia seeds, oat milk, and a touch of maple syrup. Perfect make-ahead breakfast that’s simple, filling, and naturally sweet.
Ingredients
3/4 cup rolled oats
3 tbsp chia seeds
1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups oat milk
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
Cinnamon to taste
1 pinch flaky sea salt
Instructions
1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and stir thoroughly.
2. Adjust milk for preferred consistency: use 1.25 cups for thicker texture or 1.5 cups for creamier result.
3. Transfer mixture to a jar with a lid and let sit at room temperature for 15–20 minutes.
4. Stir again to prevent chia clumping.
5. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
6. Before serving, stir once more and divide into bowls.
7. Add toppings like fruit, nut butter, or granola, and serve cold.
Notes
Use rolled oats for best texture; quick oats turn too soft and steel-cut oats remain too hard.
Stir twice—once when mixing and again after 30 minutes—to prevent chia clumps.
Letting the mixture sit at room temperature before refrigerating helps create a creamier texture.
Slightly warming the milk before mixing helps oats soften better and distributes syrup more evenly.
