Overnight Oats?

do 2/3 oats 6oz yogurt and 1/4 milk. I don't know what 6 oz equals the container I use has a line.

I do 1/4 cup oats, 1.5 tsp chia seeds, 1/3-1/2 cup almond milk, 1 tbsp greek yogurt.

If not using chia, just decrease milk a little bit.

i just tried it again this week! my first was a fail also b/c i used quick oats. i use old fashioned now. my base is 1/4c ea oats, almond milk, and yogurt. SO GOOD!!! last night i added a few teaspoons of homemade applebutter and cinnamon.

Here's the recipe I use, and I find it works quite well. It's also very quick and easy, and you can modify the flavours to your own liking.

For the overnight oats:

1/2 cup rolled oats (not quick cooking)
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
2/3 cup milk
1 tablespoon chia seeds

Flavour add-ins:

Variation #1 – Pumpkin Peanut Butter

½ cup pumpkin puree (not the spiced kind for pies!)
2 tablespoons natural peanut butter
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Variation #2 – Strawberry Banana

2 to 2 ½ tablespoons strawberry jam
1 small banana, mashed

Variation #3 - Fresh/frozen berries

Instructions:

Combine the oats, Greek yogurt, milk, and chia seeds in a bowl or jar (mason jars work well!), cover with a lid or plastic wrap, and allow the mixture to sit in the refrigerator overnight.

In the morning, stir in the desired add-ins and enjoy (choose from one of the add-in combinations shown or come up with your own custom flavors!).

bump for a try later

I haven't done them in awhile, but I don't like the yogurt in mine. I use 1/4 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup almond milk, and 1 tbs of chia seeds for the base.
I add a few cooked apples and cinnamon, pumpkin, strawberry preserves, or peaches with nutmeg as add ins.

I just started making overnight oats for my hubby and I during the work week. Ate my second batch this morning. The recipe was Apple-Cinnamon.

However, I really can not stomach it cold (yet) So I heat it up in the microwave quickly and it turns out great.

I will say the plain greek yogurt does give it a tart/tangy taste, so a healthy sweetener is a must since I do not want to elimate the yogurt completely. The plain greek yogurt is what gives the recipe the higher protein count.
