1/3 Cup + 2 tsp Cinnamon, ground

3 quarts + 1/2 Cup Strawberries, frozen

Method

  1. In large bowl, combine oats, cinnamon, milk and yogurt and stir until fully combined.

    To Serve:

  3. Portion 1 cup oats into a 9 oz plastic cup.

  4. Top each cup with ¼ cup berries.

  5. Cover cup with flat lid and place in refrigerator until service. The overnight oats base can be held for up to 3 days in refrigerator in an airtight container. Once topped for service, use within 24 hours.

    Modifications:

    Any chopped fresh or frozen fruit can be used (kiwi, peaches, mango, etc ). Almond or soy milk can be used in place of cow’s milk. Try plain yogurt with a little maple syrup or honey and a splash of vanilla or almond extract in place of vanilla yogurt. Spice it up with cardamom, all spice, ginger, nutmeg or even lime juice. Top with crumbled graham crackers or granola before serving for 2 OEGs/serving

    For best results, make overnight oats one day before serving.
