How To Make easy overnight oats and chia seed bowl
-
Step 1In a jar or bowl with a lid, stir together the oats, chia seeds, non-dairy milk, maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon (if using), and a pinch of salt.
-
Step 2Give it a good stir to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
-
Step 3Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight. The oats and chia seeds will absorb the liquid and thicken.
