Description
Creamy, chilled, and ready when you wake up, Best Overnight Oats With Coconut Milk And Chia Seeds are a quick breakfast made for busy mornings, healthy snack prep, breakfast ideas, easy recipe planning, and simple food ideas. Rolled oats soak overnight with coconut milk, chia seeds, vanilla, and maple syrup until thick, soft, and spoonable, then get finished with fruit, coconut, and crunchy toppings.
Ingredients
1 cup rolled oats
1 1/2 cups unsweetened coconut milk
2 tablespoons chia seeds
2 tablespoons shredded coconut
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 cup sliced banana
1/2 cup fresh berries
2 tablespoons toasted coconut
2 tablespoons chopped almonds
Instructions
1. Add the rolled oats, chia seeds, shredded coconut, and fine sea salt to a jar or bowl.
2. Pour in the coconut milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
3. Stir very well, making sure no dry oats or chia seeds are stuck at the bottom.
4. Let the mixture sit for 5 to 10 minutes, then stir again to prevent chia clumps.
5. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
6. In the morning, stir the oats and add a splash of coconut milk if you want a looser texture.
7. Top with sliced banana, fresh berries, toasted coconut, and chopped almonds before serving.
Notes
Use rolled oats for the best texture because quick oats can turn too soft overnight.
Stir the mixture twice before chilling so the chia seeds thicken evenly without clumps.
Add crunchy toppings right before serving so the nuts and toasted coconut stay crisp.
