Description
A simple and nutritious Matcha Overnight Oats recipe that combines the earthy flavor of matcha with creamy Greek yogurt and chia seeds for a delicious and energizing breakfast that can be prepared the night before.
Ingredients
Overnight Oats Ingredients
- 1/2 cup old fashioned oats
- 1/2 cup milk or milk alternative of choice
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon matcha powder
- 2 teaspoons chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon honey
- Dash of vanilla paste
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Measure all the oats, milk, Greek yogurt, matcha powder, chia seeds, honey, and vanilla paste into a jar or bowl. Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are well incorporated and the matcha powder is evenly distributed.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the jar or bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. Let the mixture sit overnight (or for at least 5 hours) to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
- Serve and Enjoy: In the morning, give the oats a good stir. You can enjoy it cold straight from the fridge or add your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, nuts, or seeds before serving.
Notes
- Use any milk alternative such as almond, soy, or oat milk if preferred.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey according to taste.
- For a creamier texture, increase Greek yogurt to 1/2 cup.
- Optional toppings like fresh berries, sliced almonds, or coconut flakes complement the matcha flavor well.
- Matcha powder quality affects the flavor; use ceremonial grade for best results.
