Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of milk, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, and ½ cup of plain yogurt until well combined.
  2. Next, sprinkle in 1 cup of old-fashioned rolled oats and 2 tablespoons of chia seeds. Use a spatula to gently fold these dry ingredients into the wet mixture until fully incorporated.
  3. Once the dry ingredients are well mixed, gently fold in 1 to 1 ½ cups of your favorite frozen fruit.
  4. Carefully pour the mixture into an airtight container. Seal the containers and place them into the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.
  5. When ready to enjoy, stir the containers and add a splash of additional milk if you prefer a looser texture.
  6. For a finishing touch, top your oats with extra fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, or a dollop of yogurt.
