Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- Spoon or whisk
- Mason jar or airtight container
Ingredients
- ½ cup 50g rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon matcha powder adjust to taste
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- ½ cup 120ml almond milk (or any milk of choice)
- ¼ cup 60g Greek yogurt (optional, for creaminess)
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup optional, for sweetness
- Toppings: Fresh fruits like berries or bananas, nuts, coconut flakes, or a drizzle of nut butter
Instructions
- In a jar or bowl, combine the rolled oats, matcha powder, and chia seeds. Mix well to evenly distribute the matcha.
- Pour in the almond milk and stir until all the dry ingredients are well combined. Add Greek yogurt and sweetener, if desired, and mix again.
- Cover the jar or bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight (or at least 6 hours) to allow the oats to soften and absorb the liquid.
- In the morning, give the oats a quick stir and adjust the consistency with more milk if needed.
- Add your favorite toppings—fresh fruits, nuts, or a drizzle of nut butter—and enjoy your matcha overnight oats cold or slightly warmed.
