Ingredients
  

To soak:

  • ½ cup old-fashioned oats (can use instant oats too)
  • ¾ cup water
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • pinch of salt

Toppings:

  • 1 tablespoon Honey/brown sugar/maple syrup
  • ¼ cup Freshly chopped fruits or berries (add generously if you need more)
  • 3 tablespoon Chopped nuts (almonds, pistachio, raisins)

Instructions
 

Soaking:

  • Firstly, take a mason jar, and add half a cup of oats to the container you like to soak oats.
  • Add three fourth cups of water.
  • Add chia seeds and a pinch of salt, and stir well.
  • Cover the lid of the mason jar.
  • Allow it to sit in the refrigerator for 4-6 hours, or let it sit overnight in the fridge.
  • When ready to eat, take the soaked oats out of the fridge, add honey or maple syrup, or brown sugar, and give a good mix.

Toppings:

  • Add toppings of freshly chopped, whole, or sliced fruits such as bananas, blueberries, strawberries, and more of one’s liking.
  • Also, add chopped dried nuts and make them flavorful with desired toppings.
  • Have them for breakfast or enjoy them as snacks.
  • A healthy breakfast is a healthy choice.

Notes

  • Add other toppings, such as pitted dates and skip sweetener or add any topping of your preference, such as jam, nut butter, etc. and enjoy your meal.
  • You can add yogurt or any dairy on the top for extra flavors.
  • Adding chia seeds may need extra water, and ½ cup may not be sufficient; therefore, add ¾ cup of water.
  • If you add ½ cup of water, there are no issues; make sure to add desired liquid after soaking oats to have a better consistency.
  • Adding chia seeds is optional and skip it if you do not like its taste.
  • If you want to cut down a few more calories, skip adding chia seeds and add more fruits.
