A quick and wholesome breakfast recipe featuring old-fashioned rolled oats soaked overnight with maple almond butter, chia seeds, and a touch of maple syrup for natural sweetness. Perfect for busy mornings or a calm weekend brunch.
Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture; steel-cut oats do not soften well overnight and instant oats can become mushy. Stir almond butter with a little warm milk first for smoother mixing. Chia seeds help thicken the oats and add fiber but are optional. Adjust sweetness by reducing maple syrup and adding fresh fruit if desired. Store in fridge up to 4 days; stir in milk before serving if thickened. Freezing is possible but may affect texture.
