Method
- In a blender, add the rolled oats, milk of choice, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, sweetener, vanilla extract (if using), and a pinch of salt.1/2 cup rolled oats, 1 cup milk of choice, 1/4 cup Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon chia seeds, 1 teaspoon sweetener of choice, 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 pinch salt
- Secure the lid on your blender and blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, with no visible oat flakes. This usually takes about 30-60 seconds, depending on your blender's power. You’re aiming for a consistency similar to thick pudding or a smoothie.
- Pour the blended mixture into your desired jars or containers. Mason jars, lidded bowls, or even travel cups work wonderfully. Fill them about two-thirds to three-quarters full, leaving a little space for toppings if you plan to add them in the morning.
- Place the lids on your containers and refrigerate them for at least 4 hours, or ideally, overnight. This crucial chilling period allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid, thickening the mixture and developing its signature overnight oats texture.
- In the morning, your Blended Overnight Oats will be perfectly creamy and ready to eat. You can enjoy them straight from the jar or transfer them to a bowl. Add your favorite toppings before serving!
