Cozy Sweet Maple Pecan Overnight Oats
A delightful breakfast dish made with rolled oats, almond milk, and sweet maple syrup, topped with pecans and fresh fruit.
Ingredients
- 1.0 cup rolled oats
- 2.0 cups almond milk
- 2.0 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup chopped pecans
- 0.25 cup dried cranberries or raisins
- 0.0 none fresh fruit for topping
- 0.0 none additional maple syrup for drizzling
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir well until all the ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
- Gently fold in the chopped pecans and dried cranberries or raisins if you're using them.
- Divide the mixture evenly into jars or airtight containers. Ensure that each serving has a decent amount of pecans and fruit evenly mixed in.
- Seal the jars tightly and place them in the refrigerator. Allow the overnight oats to chill and soak up the flavors for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
- In the morning, give your oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a splash more milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Top with fresh fruit (like banana slices or berries), a sprinkle of additional pecans, and a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.
- Enjoy your cozy sweet maple pecan overnight oats right from the jar or pour them into a bowl for a delightful breakfast!
