Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (whole milk or 2%)
  • 3/4 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 1 cup mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
  • 2–3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Extra berries, sliced banana, chopped nuts, or nut butter for topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup rolled oats, 2 tablespoons chia seeds (if using), a pinch of salt, and 1 teaspoon lemon zest (if using). Stir well.
  2. Add 3/4 cup milk and 1 cup Greek yogurt. Mix until fully incorporated and creamy.
  3. Drizzle in 2–3 tablespoons honey and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir until evenly distributed.
  4. Gently fold in 1 cup fresh berries. If using frozen berries, thaw and drain first.
  5. Divide the mixture evenly among 2–3 mason jars or containers, filling each about 3/4 full.
  6. Seal jars tightly and refrigerate overnight (at least 6 hours).
  7. In the morning, stir well and add desired toppings such as extra berries, nuts, banana slices, or a drizzle of honey. Serve cold.

Notes

Use gluten-free oats for a GF-friendly version. For vegan, substitute coconut or almond yogurt and maple syrup for honey. Oats keep up to 4 days in the fridge. Adjust sweetness and toppings to taste. If oats are too thick, add a splash of milk before serving.
