Ingredients
Base Recipe (Serves 4)
- 1 cup 0% Greek yogurt
- 2 cups whole milk (light coconut milk or plant milk is ok, but will slightly change macronutrient calculations)
- ½ tsp. vanilla extract (optional)
- 4 Tbs. honey (Macro Perfect Mod: reduce honey to 2 Tbs. and add 1 tsp. nut butter of choice to reduce carbs and shift macros)
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 2 Tbs. chia seeds (optional)
Add-Ins (Serves 4)
- 1 large apple, diced (¼ apple for each individual serving)
- 1 Tbs. cooking fat (we like butter or high-oleic sunflower oil)
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- Pinch of nutmeg (optional)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix base ingredients: yogurt, milk, optional vanilla extract, and honey or maple syrup until well-combined.
- Add oats and chia seeds to liquid mixture. Stir well to combine.
- Cover and refrigerate (in airtight container, or 4 individual airtight containers) for at least 2 hours, or overnight (preferred).
- Make the add-ins (ahead of time, or just before eating): sauté diced apple in cooking fat with cinnamon and optional nutmeg until soft and fragrant.
- Just before eating, add optional protein powder (mix well) and add-ins (layer or mix). Enjoy!
Notes: If you prefer a warm breakfast, you can heat this up in the morning!
