Overnight Oats With Strawberry And Banana

August 13, 2012 by mydanishkitchen

Overnight Oats With Yogurt And Fruit

The overnight oats is an easy, delicious and super healthy breakfast. I have recently discovered Chia seeds which are high in Omega-3 Fatty Acids and fiber. They are easily digestible and a wonderful addition to yogurt, smoothies and cerial. So when I came across this breakfast which called for Chia seeds, I just had to try it.

The outcome of the original recipe was a very thick oatmeal which I thought was a bit much, so I cut back on the amount of oats to get a thinner result. So if you like it real thick, add 1/2 cup of oats instead of only 1/4 cup. Also it may be a bit foreign for some to eat cold oatmeal but it’s not that far of a stretch for me. Growing up we would sometimes have oats with a little sugar and milk for breakfast, served cold just like that, and then other time we would have it as a warm oatmeal. So to me this is quite delicious.

Ingredients:

1/4 cup old fashioned Oats

1/2 cup greek yogurt

1/2 cup milk

1 tablespoon Chia seeds

2 tablespoon honey

1/4 cup raspberries or strawberries, chopped, frozen or fresh

1/2 banana, sliced

Directions: Add to a glass jar the oats, yogurt and milk. Then add Chia seeds and honey, stir to combine. Add chopped strawberries or raspberries and sliced banana, stir gently and seal with lid. Place in refrigerator overnight and enjoy in the morning.

    I love cold oatmeal with milk and a little sugar for breakfast as well. I have some lovely organic oats in the cupboard right now, I think I’ll try this out. Only thing I need to get are Chia Seeds. But I think this would be great without them as well.

      Oh yeah it will be great even without the Chai seeds. The seeds just add extra nutrition and they have a funny “swollen” sensation to them, but you can easily leave them out.

    Uhmm, det ser virkelig godt ud. Jeg har set at man også kan gøre noget lignende med steel cut oat, som jeg havde med hjem fra USA i foråret 🙂

    Mange hilsner
