Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 2 tsp maple syrup, divided
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup pitted cherries, divided
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

Method
 

  1. In a jar or airtight container, stir together the oats, milk, yogurt, chia seeds, 1 tsp maple syrup, vanilla, and salt until combined, about 30 seconds.
  2. In a small bowl, mash half the cherries, then stir in the remaining 1 tsp maple syrup and the lemon juice. Dollop over the oat mixture and fold gently to create swirls. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
  3. In the morning, top with the remaining fresh cherries, granola, and a drizzle of nut butter if you like. Serve cold.

Notes

Chill for at least 4 hours before eating; overnight (8 hours) is best for the creamiest texture. The oats will keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
