Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Brew your chosen tea and let it steep according to package instructions. Set aside to cool.
- In a small bowl, place mixed dried fruit and pour the cooled tea over until fully submerged. Soak for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
Mixing and Assembling
- In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, milk, honey or maple syrup, chia seeds, and salt. Stir well.
- Once the dried fruit has soaked, drain it while reserving a bit of the tea. Add drained fruit to the oat mixture and stir to combine. Adjust consistency with reserved tea if needed.
- Divide mixture into jars or containers and cover.
Chilling
- Refrigerate overnight to allow oats to absorb the liquid and soften.
- In the morning, serve cold directly from the jar or in a bowl. Add additional fresh fruit, nuts, or preferred toppings.
Notes
Store leftover oats in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. You can freeze them but avoid adding fresh toppings until ready to eat.
