Cook Time: 5 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp chia seeds
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseeds
- pinch salt
- 1 cup non-dairy milk of choice
- 2 tbsp coconut yogurt

Directions
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the dry ingredients: oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, chia seeds, flaxseeds, and a pinch of salt. Stir them together until well mixed.
- Next, add the plant-based milk, yogurt, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Use a spoon to mix everything thoroughly until evenly combined.
- Divide the mixture between two small mason jars. Seal the jars with lids and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or, ideally, overnight to let the oats set.
