Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup unsweetened plain almond milk
- ¼ cup cold brew concentrate or regular espresso
Flavor Enhancers:
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
Seasoning:
- 1 pinch of salt
Instructions
- Layer the dry components – brown sugar, rolled oats, chia seeds, and salt – into a spacious meal prep container, ensuring even distribution of ingredients.
- Gently pour cold brew concentrate and almond milk over the dry mixture, using a long-handled spoon to integrate all elements thoroughly until no dry pockets remain.
- Seal the container with a tight-fitting lid, creating an airtight environment that prevents moisture loss and supports optimal oat absorption.
- Transfer the container to the refrigerator, allowing the mixture to rest and soften for a minimum of two hours, though overnight chilling produces the most luxurious texture.
- When ready to indulge, give the oats a gentle stir and assess consistency, optionally introducing an extra splash of almond milk to achieve desired creaminess.
- Serve chilled directly from the container, enjoying the rich, smooth blend of coffee-infused oats with a subtle brown sugar undertone.
Notes
- Wake up to a delightful breakfast with minimal morning effort by preparing these oats the night before.
- Chia seeds boost nutritional value, adding extra protein, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids to your morning meal.
- Cold brew concentrate provides a rich, smooth espresso flavor that elevates traditional overnight oats.
- Refrigerating for at least 2 hours allows ingredients to meld, creating a creamy and perfectly textured breakfast.
- Optional splash of almond milk right before serving can adjust consistency to your personal preference.
