Short answer: Mix ½ cup oats + ⅔–¾ cup milk + 1 tbsp chia in a jar, refrigerate overnight, then top with nuts and chopped dry fruits in the morning so toppings stay crunchy.

Prep: 5 minRest: OvernightServes: 1

Base ingredients

  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • ⅔–¾ cup milk (dairy or plant)
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • Optional: 2 tbsp yogurt, pinch of cinnamon, 1 tsp honey
  • Toppings: chopped almonds, walnuts, raisins, or 1 date

Steps

  1. Add oats, chia, milk, and optional yogurt/honey to a jar. Stir well so chia does not clump.
  2. Seal and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
  3. In the morning, stir. Add a splash of milk if too thick.
  4. Top with nuts and dry fruits just before eating.
Crunch rule: Keep toasted nuts for the morning. If mixed overnight they soften.

Flavour ideas

  • Date-cinnamon: chopped date + cinnamon + almonds
  • Raisin-walnut: classic porridge vibe
  • Pista garnish: a few chopped pistachios on top

FAQ

Can I use quick oats?

Yes, but texture is softer. Rolled oats hold up better overnight.

How many days can I prep?

Base jars keep about 3–4 days refrigerated. Add fresh toppings daily.

Do I have to use chia?

No, but chia thickens the jar nicely. Without chia, reduce liquid slightly.
