Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 cup sliced strawberries
  • 1/4 cup granola
  • 2 tbsp sliced almonds
  • 1/4 cup shredded coconut
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup diced mango
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans

Method
 

  1. Gather four mason jars or glass containers and divide the rolled oats evenly among them, using 1/2 cup per jar. This ensures consistent portions for your easy meal prep breakfast kids can grab independently.
  2. Pour 1/2 cup almond milk into each jar, stirring gently to combine with the oats. Let sit for 2-3 minutes so the liquid absorbs evenly throughout the mixture.
  3. Add 1/4 cup Greek yogurt to each jar along with 1 tbsp honey, 1/2 tbsp chia seeds, 1/4 tsp vanilla extract, and a pinch of cinnamon. Stir thoroughly until completely combined with no lumps remaining.
  4. Divide your summer meal prep overnight oats family recipe toppings among the jars in separate layers—blueberries, strawberries, coconut, and almonds on top. Don't mix the toppings; keep them layered so they stay fresh and crispy throughout the week.
  5. Seal each jar tightly with a lid and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight. The oats will absorb the liquid and soften to the perfect creamy consistency.
  6. In the morning, shake the jar vigorously or stir well to combine all ingredients before eating. Add an extra splash of milk if you prefer a thinner consistency for your overnight oats family servings.
