Ingredients
  

For the Oats
  • 1 cup Rolled Oats The backbone of your oats; provides a chewy texture and is rich in fiber.
  • 1 cup Milk Adds creaminess; substitute with almond or oat milk for a dairy-free option.
  • 1/2 cup Greek Yogurt Offers a protein boost and creaminess; use dairy-free yogurt for vegan oats.
For the Sweetness
  • 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup Natural sweetener that mimics the glaze on cinnamon rolls; honey or agave can be used as alternatives.
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon The essential spice that creates the signature flavor; adjust to your spice preference.
For the Flavor
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Enhances the overall taste; opt for pure vanilla for the best flavor profile.
Optional Toppings
  • 1/4 cup Chopped Nuts Provides a delightful crunch and healthy fats; substitute with seeds for nut-free oats.
  • 1/2 cup Fresh Fruit Adds natural sweetness and freshness; berries or bananas make great toppings.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Oat Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl or a jar, combine rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Use a whisk or spoon to mix thoroughly, ensuring each oat is well coated in the creamy mixture.
  2. Submerge the Oats: Once everything is well mixed, ensure that all the oats are completely submerged in the liquid mixture.
  3. Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the bowl tightly and place it in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4-6 hours, ideally overnight.
  4. Stir and Adjust Consistency: The next morning, remove the oats from the fridge and give them a good stir. Add a splash of milk if they are too thick.
  5. Add Your Favorite Toppings: Top with chopped nuts, a drizzle of extra maple syrup, or fresh fruit before enjoying.
