Ingredients

Scale

1 cup rolled oats
2 cups almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
2 tablespoons brown sugar (adjust for sweetness)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, brown sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until the brown sugar is well mixed and dissolved.
If you want extra creaminess, fold in the Greek yogurt until fully incorporated.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture to an airtight container and refrigerate overnight (or at least 4 hours) to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and soften.
In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a splash of milk to reach your desired consistency.
Serve the oats in bowls and top with sliced banana, chopped walnuts or pecans, and a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.

Notes

Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less brown sugar.
Feel free to substitute the nuts with your favorite toppings.
This recipe can be made vegan by omitting the Greek yogurt or using a plant-based yogurt.
