Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup quick oats
  • 1/2 cup milk or any plant-based milk
  • 1/4 cup yogurt plain or Greek
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
  • 1-2 tablespoons agave syrup to taste
  • 1/2 cup raspberries fresh or frozen

Instructions
 

Prepare the Oats:

  • In a bowl, combine the oats, milk, yogurt, vanilla extract, and agave syrup. Mix well.
  • Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4-6 hours).

Prepare the Raspberries:

  • If using frozen raspberries, let them thaw at room temperature.
  • Puree half of the raspberries using a blender or fork.
  • Leave the other half whole or cut them into small pieces if the raspberries are large. If using frozen raspberries, puree all of them.

Assemble the Dish:

  • In the morning, take the oats out of the refrigerator and stir well.
  • Layer the oats in a glass or jar, starting with a layer of oats.
  • Add a layer of raspberry puree on top of the oats.
  • Add the remaining oats and finish with the whole raspberry pieces on top, if using fresh raspberries, or the remaining raspberry puree.

Serve:

  • Serve immediately, optionally garnished with mint leaves.

Notes

  • : For ultra-creamy oats, use rolled oats instead of quick oats and extend soaking time to 8 hours
  • : Reserve a few fresh raspberries to crush just before serving for a burst of bright flavor contrast
  • : Stir in 1 tablespoon of chia seeds or hemp hearts when preparing the base for added nutrition
  • : Remove from refrigerator 10 minutes before eating to enhance flavors – cold temperatures can dull taste perception
  • : Create a rotation of seasonal fruits throughout the year – try blackberries, peaches, or poached pears
  • : Prepare in individual mason jars for grab-and-go convenience throughout the week
