Ingredients

45 g Rolled oats (½ cup)
180 ml Almond milk (unsweetened) (¾ cup)
75 g Blueberries (½ cup)
15 g Walnuts (1 small handful)
1 tbsp Chia seeds
0.5 tsp Ground cinnamon

Instructions

1
In a jar or small bowl, mix the rolled oats, chia seeds, and ground cinnamon.
2
Pour in the almond milk and stir well until all ingredients are combined.
3
Top with fresh blueberries and press them down slightly with a spoon.
4
Coarsely chop the walnuts and sprinkle them on top (you can also add them in the morning to keep them crunchy).
5
Close the jar or cover the bowl and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
6
In the morning, stir the contents before eating. If the oats are too thick, add a splash more almond milk.

Chef's Tips

•Use frozen blueberries when they are out of season—they have just as many nutrients.
•If you prefer a sweeter breakfast, add half a mashed banana or a few drops of maple syrup.
•Walnuts added in the morning will stay crunchy, providing a great contrast to the creamy oats.
