- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup milk use dairy or plant-based
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup for sweetness
- 1 ripe persimmon sliced (for topping)
- 1 –2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
- Additional honey or maple syrup for drizzling on top
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds optional, for added texture and nutrients
Prepare the Overnight Oats Base: In a mixing bowl, combine oats, milk, yogurt, and honey or maple syrup. If using chia seeds, add them in this step for extra texture and nutrients. Stir thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly combined. Transfer the mixture to a jar or bowl with a lid, cover, and refrigerate overnight (or at least 6 hours) to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken.
Assemble the Oats with Toppings: In the morning, remove the oats from the fridge and give them a good stir. If the oats are too thick, add a splash of milk to reach your desired consistency. Spoon the oat mixture into a serving bowl or glass.
Add Persimmon and Walnuts: Arrange the persimmon slices over the oats, creating a vibrant, juicy layer. Sprinkle the chopped walnuts on top for a crunchy, nutty texture.
Finish with a Drizzle: Drizzle a little extra honey or maple syrup on top if you like it sweeter.
Serve and Enjoy: Enjoy your Persimmon Overnight Oats straight from the fridge for a fresh, energizing start to your day!
- Adjust sweetness: If you prefer it sweeter, feel free to add more honey or syrup.
- Optional chia seeds: Chia seeds enhance the creamy texture and add nutrition, so feel free to add or skip.
- Try other toppings: Experiment with other toppings like toasted almonds or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
- Meal prep: Make multiple jars in advance for a grab-and-go breakfast that lasts through the week!
