Description
Adding chia seeds and hemp seeds to your overnight oats is a great way to add extra protein, fiber, and omega-3’s. We love this recipe with additional mix-ins like hemp seeds or flax seeds. Use what you have on hand to customize it to your preferences.
Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1/2 cup whole rolled oats, preferably organic
- 2 teaspoons hemp seeds (aka hemp hearts)
- 2 teaspoons chia seeds, or flax seeds, or more hemp seeds
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk, or non-dairy milk of your choice
- optional: 1 tablespoon unsweetened coconut flakes
- about 1/3 cup fruit for the top
- optional: a drizzle of raw honey for flavor, nutrients, and natural sweetness
Instructions
- Mix the oats, chia seeds, and other seeds if using in a small bowl or jar; I used 8-ounce containers in the photo here. Top with unsweetened coconut flakes if using. Pour nut milk over the oat mixture; it should be saturated to the point the milk pools on top a little.
- Cover and refrigerate overnight or up to three days.
- Top with fruit and/or a small drizzle or raw honey before eating. Pictured here: kiwi fruit with strawberries, and sliced kumquats with blueberries.
