Golden Milk Overnight Oats

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup light coconut milk (we used unsweetened boxed)
• 1 Tbsp chia seeds
• 1 tsp golden milk spice mix (see individual spices listed in notes)
• 2 Tbsp almond butter (or cashew butter)
• 1 Tbsp maple syrup
• 1/2 cup gluten-free rolled oats
• 1/2 cup banana, sliced (1/2 banana yields ~1/2 cup)
• 2 Tbsp coconut flakes (optional)
• 2 Tbsp coconut yogurt (optional)
• 1/4 cup unsweetened boxed coconut milk (optional)
• 1 tsp maple syrup (optional)

Method

1. To a jar or small bowl with a lid, add the coconut milk, chia seeds, golden milk spices (see notes for individual spices), almond butter, and maple syrup. Stir until the spices are incorporated into the milk. Some larger swirls of almond butter are okay.
2. Add the rolled oats and stir to combine. Press down with a spoon to ensure all oats have been moistened and are immersed in the coconut milk.
3. Cover securely with a lid or seal and store in the refrigerator overnight, or for at least 6 hours.360 min timer
4. The next day, remove from the refrigerator and top with sliced banana. Optionally, garnish with coconut flakes, coconut yogurt, additional coconut milk, and/or a drizzle of maple syrup. Enjoy! Best within 24-48 hours. Not freezer friendly.
