Prepare the Base:
In a small jar or container, combine rolled oats, milk, yogurt (if using), chia seeds, and sweetener.
Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Chill Overnight:
Cover the jar with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid, creating a creamy texture.
Add Toppings:
In the morning, give the oats a stir. Add your favorite toppings such as sliced banana, fresh berries, chopped nuts, and an extra drizzle of honey if desired.
Serve:
Enjoy your overnight oats cold straight from the jar, or warm them up slightly if preferred.
