1 cup rolled (traditional) oats

10 almonds

12 g 0.42 oz

2½  tbsp pepitas (pumpkin seeds)

23 g 0.81 oz

tsp ground cinnamon

2 g 0.07 oz

2½  tbsp dried cranberries

½  ½  cup milk of your choice (cows, lactose free, almond, rice etc)

40 g 1.4 oz

tsp maple syrup (optional)

5 g 0.18 oz

Method

  1. Place oats and almonds in a food processor and pulse a few times to make the oats smaller. This will improve the texture of your overnight oats. 

  2. Pour oats and almonds into a bowl and add all other dry ingredients, mix well. If you will be taking your breakfast to go, pour into a jar or container with a tight fitting lid. 

  3. Pour in the milk and water, cover and place in the fridge overnight.

  4. In the morning, scoop out your serve, add a dollop of yoghurt or a splash of milk to loosen the mixture, add some fruit and breakfast is served


Hints

  • Halve the recipe for a single serve
  • Don’t have a food processor? No problem, use quick oats and flaked almonds instead!
  • This mixture will last up to 4 days in the fridge so double the quantity for some easy meal prep.
