Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 teaspoon espresso powder
- 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/3 cup old fashioned oats
- 1/2 teaspoon chia seeds
Liquid
- 1/2 cup oat milk
Instructions
- Mix Coffee and Spices: In a jar with a tight fitting lid, combine the brown sugar, espresso powder, and cinnamon. Add the oat milk, secure the lid tightly, and shake well until the sugar and espresso powder are fully dissolved and ingredients are well incorporated.
- Add Oats and Chia Seeds: Remove the lid and add the old fashioned oats and chia seeds to the jar. Replace the lid and shake again until everything is evenly combined.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Place the jar in the refrigerator and let it sit overnight for at least 4 hours. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
- Serve: Before eating, optionally sprinkle a little extra brown sugar or cinnamon on top for added flavor and enjoy chilled directly from the jar or transferred to a bowl.
Notes
- Use rolled oats (old fashioned) for best texture; quick oats will result in softer texture.
- Adjust espresso powder amount to your desired coffee strength.
- Overnight oats can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- For a creamier texture, use full-fat oat milk or substitute with dairy milk or other plant-based milk.
- Optional toppings include nuts, seeds, or fresh fruit for added flavor and nutrition.
