Estimated values; they vary with exact ingredients and portioning.

Method

  1. Combine the oats, yogurt, milk, chia seeds and cinnamon in a jar and stir thoroughly.
  2. Fold through half the berries.
  3. Seal and refrigerate for at least six hours, or overnight.
  4. Top with the remaining berries and sweeten to taste before eating.

Substitutions

  • Use soy yogurt and soy milk to keep the protein content in a dairy-free version.
  • Swap chia for ground flaxseed.
  • Frozen berries work well and cost less; they thaw overnight in the jar.

Storage

Keeps covered in the fridge for up to three days. Add crunchy toppings just before eating.
