Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups almond milk
- 3 tbsp creamy almond butter unsalted
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch salt
- ½ cup rolled oats
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
Strawberry Compote
- 1 cup fresh strawberries chopped (or frozen and mostly defrosted)
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
Instructions
- In a mixing glass or bowl, combine almond milk, almond butter, 1 tbsp maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk to blend. Alternatively, mix in a blender until smooth.
- Use 1 cup or larger jars or sealable containers. To each container, add ¼ cup rolled oats and 1 tbsp chia seeds.
- Distribute the liquid evenly between containers. Stir well. Set aside for 10 minutes to thicken slightly.
Make the compote
- In a medium saucepan, combine chopped strawberries (smaller pieces will break down more easily) and 2 tbsp maple syrup.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, using a spatula to break up the pieces. Cook until thickened and strawberries are mostly disintegrated. Set aside to cool.
- Once chia-oat mixture has started to thicken, give it another stir and top with strawberry compote.
- Cover and set in the fridge for at least 8 hours or overnight. Serve with cut fruit, toasted sliced almonds, or granola. Store for up to 4 days.
Notes
Use unsweetened almond milk so your oats aren't too sweet.
Use fresh almond butter or let it come to room temperature so it's easier to blend.
Serve straight from the fridge, at room temperature, or slightly warmed.
Store overnight oats for up to 4 days.
Double the recipe so you have a ready-to-go breakfast all week.
