Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled Oats (or gluten-free oat flakes)
- 2 tablespoons Chia Seeds (optional)
Wet Ingredients & Spices
- 1 cup Unsweetened Coconut Milk (or almond/oat milk)
- 1 teaspoon Ground Turmeric (or fresh turmeric)
- 1 teaspoon Fresh Ginger (or ground ginger)
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon (fresh ground is best)
- 1 pinch Black Pepper (freshly ground is best)
- 2 tablespoons Pure Maple Syrup (or stevia)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Toppings
- 1/4 cup Sliced Almonds (toasted) (or other nuts/seeds)
- 1/2 cup Fresh Berries (e.g., blueberries, raspberries)
Instructions
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium jar, mix together the rolled oats and chia seeds until evenly distributed. This forms the base of your overnight oats.
- Prepare Liquid Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk the unsweetened coconut milk with ground turmeric, fresh ginger, ground cinnamon, black pepper, pure maple syrup, and vanilla extract until all ingredients are well combined and dissolved.
- Mix Oats and Liquid: Pour the spiced coconut milk mixture over the oat and chia seed blend. Stir gently to combine everything thoroughly, ensuring the oats absorb the flavorful liquid.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Seal the jar tightly and place it in the refrigerator overnight (about 8 hours), allowing the oats and chia seeds to soak and soften while the spices meld together for a vibrant flavor.
- Add Toppings and Serve: In the morning, remove the oats from the refrigerator and top with toasted sliced almonds and fresh berries for a crunchy, fresh finish. Enjoy chilled or at room temperature.
Notes
- Chia seeds are optional but add extra fiber and a creamy texture.
- Fresh turmeric can be used instead of ground for a brighter flavor; peel and finely grate it.
- Black pepper enhances the absorption of curcumin from turmeric.
- Maple syrup can be substituted with stevia or honey depending on dietary preferences.
- Feel free to customize toppings with your favorite nuts or seasonal fruits.
- To toast almonds, simply heat them in a dry pan over medium heat for 3-5 minutes until golden and fragrant.
