Instructions
- Combine Ingredients:
- In a jar or airtight container, add the oats, milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
- Add Blueberries:
- Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Chill Overnight:
- Cover the container with a lid and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Serve:

Notes
- For a vegan option, use plant-based milk (almond, oat, or soy) and skip the Greek yogurt or replace it with a dairy-free alternative.
- Adjust the sweetness to your liking with more or less maple syrup or honey.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, but the texture may soften further over time.
- Frozen blueberries will naturally thaw overnight and infuse the oats with their juice, creating a vibrant color and flavor.
