Ingredients

  • ½ cup non-dairy milk
  • 1 tbsp pistachio butter
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup quick oats
  • 1 tsp chia seeds
  • Non-dairy yogurt (for topping)
  • Raspberries (for topping)
  • Chopped pistachios (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a jar or small bowl, whisk together the non-dairy milk, pistachio butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until the pistachio butter dissolves. Stir in the oats and chia seeds. For an extra pop of color and flavor, you can add ¼ teaspoon of matcha powder at this stage (optional).
  2. Step 2: Cover the jar or bowl and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to soak and thicken.
  3. Step 3: The next morning, stir the oats and top with non-dairy yogurt, fresh raspberries, and chopped pistachios before serving.

Tips & Variations

  • Use almond or oat milk for a mild flavor, or try coconut milk for a richer taste.
  • Add a pinch of cinnamon or cardamom for a warm spice note.
  • Replace raspberries with other berries or sliced fruits like banana or mango.
  • For added protein, mix in a scoop of your favorite plant-based protein powder.

Storage

Store the prepared overnight oats in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If needed, you can stir in a splash of milk before eating to adjust the consistency. This dish is best served cold but can be warmed slightly if preferred.

FAQs

Can I use regular dairy milk instead of non-dairy milk?

Yes, regular dairy milk can be used if you don’t require a dairy-free option. It will work just as well in soaking the oats and chia seeds.

What if I don’t have pistachio butter?

You can substitute with almond butter or cashew butter for a similar creamy texture and nutty flavor, though it will alter the taste slightly.

Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • ½ cup non-dairy milk
  • 1 tbsp pistachio butter
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup quick oats
  • 1 tsp chia seeds

Toppings

  • Non-dairy yogurt (for topping)
  • Raspberries (for topping)
  • Chopped pistachios (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Mix the base: In a jar or small bowl, whisk together the non-dairy milk, pistachio butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until the pistachio butter dissolves completely and the mixture is smooth. Then add the quick oats and chia seeds and mix well. Optionally stir in ¼ teaspoon of matcha powder for a subtle earthy flavor and vibrant color.
  2. Refrigerate to set: Cover the jar or bowl tightly and place it in the refrigerator to chill and set overnight or for at least 4 hours. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften, creating a creamy texture.
  3. Add toppings and serve: The next morning, stir the oat mixture gently and add your choice of non-dairy yogurt, fresh raspberries, and chopped pistachios on top for extra flavor and crunch. Enjoy cold as a refreshing and wholesome breakfast.

Notes

  • Use quick oats for a softer texture; rolled oats can be used but may require longer soaking.
  • Non-dairy milk options such as almond, oat, or soy milk work well.
  • Maple syrup can be adjusted to taste or substituted with agave nectar or honey (if not strictly vegan).
  • For a protein boost, add a scoop of vegan protein powder or nut seeds.
  • Overnight oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
