Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 2 tbsp chopped pistachios
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds (optional)

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup milk of choice (almond, coconut, dairy, or oat milk)
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp sweetener (honey, maple syrup, or agave)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: Place the rolled oats, chopped pistachios, and chia seeds (if using) into a clean jar or bowl. Mixing dry ingredients first helps distribute the nuts evenly throughout the oats.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in your preferred milk, Greek yogurt, sweetener, and vanilla extract. Stir well until all ingredients are combined and the oats are completely submerged in liquid for uniform soaking.
  3. Refrigerate Overnight: Seal the container and refrigerate overnight or for at least 6 hours. This soaking process softens the oats and develops a creamy texture without cooking.
  4. Stir and Serve: In the morning, gently stir the oats to mix any separated liquid. Add optional fresh toppings like extra pistachios, berries, or honey before enjoying.

Notes

  • Use old-fashioned rolled oats for the best texture, as they soak up liquids better than instant oats.
  • Finely chop pistachios to evenly distribute their flavor and crunch.
  • Adjust sweetness after soaking by tasting and adding more sweetener if needed.
  • Choose thick Greek yogurt to enhance creaminess and protein content.
  • Prepare multiple servings ahead of time by making several jars for easy breakfast options during the week.
