15 minute SOAKED Oats with Chia SEeds
Ingredients:
1/2 cup rolled oats
2 tablespoons chia seeds
2 tablespoons of flax seeds
1 cup milk
pinch of celtic salt
Toppings of your choice: bananas, blueberries, cinnamon, honey, etc.
Instructions:
Prepare the Base:
In a glass jar or airtight container, combine the rolled oats, flax seeds, chia seeds, pinch of celtic salt.
Option to mix protein powder with liquid - In a separate container, mix the milk with one scoop of your chosen protein powder. Stir well until the protein powder is fully dissolved into the milk.
Combine Liquid and Oats:
Pour the milk mixture over the oats and chia seeds in the jar.
Mix and Refrigerate:
Secure the lid on the jar, place it in the refrigerator and let it sit for a minimum 15 minutes or longer. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like consistency.
Add Toppings:
Once time is up, take the jar out of the fridge and give the mixture a stir to ensure everything is well-mixed. Add fruits, honey, cinnamon, nuts, seeds, granola… anything you want! Get creative!
Enjoy!
