Servings 0
Ingredients
- ¾ cup Rolled Oats (gf if needed, preferably organic)
- 1 cup Date Milk (or other non-dairy mik*)
- ¼ cup Blueberries (frozen or fresh, or other fruit)
- 1 tbsp Ground Flaxseed (chia seeds also work)
- 1 Empty jar of nut butter
Instructions
- First, you want to blend your milk and dates together. Blending the dates in the milk will make a natural sweetener. You could also use a tablespoon or two of date syrup/ maple syrup or honey and just stir it in.
- In a mason jar or bowl with a lid, add the berries, oats, flax/chia seeds and then the milk. Stir it all together. You want to make sure all the oats have been touched by the milk.
- Cover and then place in the refrigerator overnight. The next day, open and stir it again. If there’s too much liquid you can add more chia seeds or oats, mix again and let it sit for a few minutes to thicken. You can also add other toppings like nut butters, goji berries, banana or more berries. These can be made 5 days in advance so you can make more for additional days
Notes
*If you do not want to make date milk, use other plant-based milks and add in 1-2 tablespoons of maple syrup or honey.
