A creamy, make-ahead breakfast that delivers fiber, protein, and steady energy with minimal effort.
Servings: 1
Time: Prep 5 minutes · Chill 2 hours or overnight
Ingredients
- ¾ cup unsweetened plant milk (soy, oat, almond or hemp)
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons rolled oats
- 1 large pitted Medjool date, chopped.
- Optional: ½ teaspoon cinnamon or 1 teaspoon cacao powder – or both!
Method
- Stir all ingredients together in a jar or bowl, breaking up chia seed clumps. I have good luck using a pint jar, sealing lid, and shaking.
- Let sit 5 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping.
- Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours, or overnight, until thickened.
- Stir before eating.
Taste & Texture Notes
Creamy and spoonable with gentle chew from the oats. Neutral and very adaptable, a great foundation for many flavor variations. You are limited only by your imagination! Strongly recommend a dash of cinnamon with 1 tsp of Cacao.
Make It Yours
- Top with berries, sliced fruit, or nuts.
- Add nut butter for richness.
- Use coconut milk for extra creaminess.
- Add cacao, vanilla, or cinnamon for flavor variation – you won’t be sorry.
