Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup rolled oats old-fashioned
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon poppy seeds
  • 0.125 teaspoon salt
  • 1.5 cups plant milk unsweetened, unflavored
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 lemon medium, finely grated zest and 1 tablespoon juice
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract

Equipment

  • 2 16-ounce jars or containers

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl, stir together the oats, chia seeds, poppy seeds, and salt.
  2. Mix in the plant milk, maple syrup, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla until evenly combined.
  3. Divide the mixture between two 16-ounce jars or containers and cover.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  5. Stir the oats.

Notes

For an even texture, stir the mixture well before dividing it into the jars. Refrigerate for up to 4 days; freezing is not recommended. For a nut-free option, choose oat or soy milk if your usual plant milk contains nuts.
