Base Ingredients

Method

Preparation of Base

  1. 1

    Combine Base Ingredients

    In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the rolled oats, almond milk, chia seeds, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Stir well to ensure everything is evenly combined.

  2. 2

    Refrigerate Overnight

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours) to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and the mixture to thicken.

Toppings and Assembly

  1. 3

    Prepare Toppings

    While the base is chilling, wash the fresh berries and slice the banana. Chop the nuts if needed.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    Once the base has thickened, remove it from the refrigerator. Spoon the mixture into bowls and top with fresh berries, sliced banana, chopped nuts, and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

  3. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Add mint leaves on top for garnish. Serve immediately for a refreshing and nutritious breakfast or snack.
