Overnight Oats in a Jar - Almond and Raspberry

This recipe is much like the chia seed pudding recipe... .if you can call it a recipe. :-) .. in this case you use oats instead of chia seeds.

The variations on this one like the chia one is endless. I have made it with banana , walnuts and cinnamon .... With raspberries, flaked almonds and coconut. Many more.. mix and match ingredients such as blueberries, hazelnuts, almonds, walnuts.. I've seen  few recipes with cocoa and coffee.. the cocoa being off plan for now.

Here's a list of the ingredients and method that i've used.

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup gluten free oats
• 1/2-1/3 cup almond or coconut milk
• 1 Tbsp Greek Yogurt
• 1 Tbsp Almond Butter
• (optional for protein - 1/2-1 scoop of protein powder)
• Handful of frozen or fresh raspberries
• Handful of flaked almonds 

Method

1. In a jar add all the ingredients.
2. Put the lid on the jar and shake it up to ensure all the ingredients are mixed up.
3. Place in fridge overnight to soak.
4. In morning remove from fridge and eat :-) EASY PEASY

If you prefer it hot you can heat it up in the morning.

As i mentioned the options are endless and fun to play around with. If you're pushed for time you can make a batch of these on a sunday night and keep them in fridge for the week, taking out one at a time for breakfasts.

Get the kids involved to make up their own jars to  be left overnight :)
