Overnight Oat Pie ?⠀
{Overnight Oats Family Style} ??? The convenience and nutrition of overnight oats made family-style!⠀
⠀
This is a great recipe if you’ve got a bigger group who you want to feed very easily in the mornings!⠀
⠀
I wrote this one for a big family in mind (there’s 8 of us over here ?) BUT, I’ve also included measurements at the very bottom in case you want to adjust down the recipe to a smaller pan for your crew.⠀
⠀
This entire recipe is very interchangeable, so grant yourself free creative and personal freedom to make something your family will LOVE!⠀
⠀
Not only do “soaked oats” save a lot of time in the morning, but they’re also much easier to digest than unsoaked oats.⠀
As the oats soak overnight, their digestibility greatly improves, here’s how:⠀
⠀
Overnight as they soak, the starches break down which improves digestibility and the natural phytic acid (which all plants contain) is greatly reduced that makes them more easily absorbed by your body!⠀
⠀
Makes about 10 servings (12 servings for young children)⠀
⠀
5 cups old fashioned rolled oats⠀
1/3 cup chia seeds⠀
5 cups milk of choice, I recommend unsweetened almond, coconut, or cashew milk ⠀
1.5 Tbsps vanilla extract⠀
1/8 tsp sea salt ⠀
2 cups unsweetened Greek, or coconut yogurt⠀
3 cups fresh, or frozen chopped berries and=or fruit of choice ⠀
Sweetener is optional as sweetness factor is very personal:⠀
6-8 drops stevia liquid or 2-3 Tbsps raw honey or pure maple syrup ⠀
Instructions:⠀
In your large mixing bowl, add oats, chia seeds, milk, vanilla, salt and sweetener of choice then thoroughly stir to combine. ⠀
Add this mixture into a 13×9 shallow glass serving dish using a spatula to prepare a nice even layer, then refrigerate this part at least one hour to thicken before adding your top layers. (I prepare this in the afternoon, set in the fridge, then right before bed top with toppings)⠀
⠀
Once set up a bit, top it with a layer of Greek yogurt and fruit or berries, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.⠀
⠀
These oats are meant to be eaten cold.
