Ingredients

Oats

  • 3 tbsp old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp hemp hearts
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tbsp natural peanut butter (no sugar added)
  • 1 tsp granulated monk fruit sweetener
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Topping

  • 2 tbsp fresh raspberries

Directions

  1. In a 12 to 16 ounce jar, stir the almond milk, peanut butter, monk fruit, vanilla and salt until the peanut butter is mostly blended in.
  2. Add the oats, flaxseed, chia seeds and hemp hearts. Stir well, then press the oats down so they are fully covered with liquid.
  3. Cover and refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight. The chia and oats will soak up the liquid and turn thick and creamy.
  4. Stir in the morning, adding a splash of almond milk if it is too thick. Top with the raspberries and eat cold.
Tip: Stir again after the first 30 minutes in the fridge. Chia seeds clump if they settle, and one extra stir keeps the texture even.
Dad jokeThese overnight oats work the late shift so you don't have to. Talk about a breakfast that really soaks it all in.
