Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • Pinch of salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ¼ cup cold brew concentrate or regular espresso
  • 1 cup unsweetened plain almond milk

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: Add the brown sugar, rolled oats, chia seeds, and a pinch of salt into a meal prep container. Stir these dry ingredients together until evenly mixed.
  2. Add Liquids: Pour the cold brew concentrate or regular espresso and unsweetened almond milk over the oat mixture. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
  3. Refrigerate: Cover the container tightly and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the oats and chia seeds to soak and absorb the flavors.
  4. Serve: Before eating, optionally stir in a bit more almond milk if a thinner consistency is desired. Enjoy the oats chilled, straight from the fridge, as a wholesome and caffeinated breakfast.

Notes

  • You can substitute cold brew concentrate with regular hot espresso cooled down if preferred.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more or less brown sugar according to taste.
  • For a creamier texture, consider using oat milk or dairy milk instead of almond milk.
  • Feel free to add toppings like sliced fruits, nuts, or seeds before serving for extra flavor and texture.
  • This recipe can be doubled or tripled and stored in separate containers for convenient meal prep.
