2 cups gluten-free oats Shop
1 cup unsweetened almond milk Shop
0.5 cup plain unsweetened yogurt
2 tbsp maple syrup Shop
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
0.5 tsp pure vanilla extract Shop
1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
2 tbsp chia seeds Shop

Instructions

1 In a large bowl or individual jars, combine the gluten-free oats and chia seeds. Stir them together thoroughly to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed among the oats.
2 Pour in the unsweetened almond milk, plain unsweetened yogurt, maple syrup, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and pure vanilla extract. Whisk everything together until well combined and no dry pockets remain.
3 Gently fold in the fresh or frozen raspberries. If using frozen, they will thaw overnight and release their juices, creating a beautiful pink hue and adding more flavor. Stir gently to avoid crushing all the berries.
4 Cover the bowl or seal the jars tightly with lids. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, allowing the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken into a creamy consistency, about 8-12 hours.
5 Before serving, give the overnight oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a splash more almond milk to reach your desired consistency. Serve chilled, garnished with extra raspberries or a sprinkle of lemon zest if desired.

Tips & Notes

Pick a bag of oats marked gluten-free for this recipe. Ordinary oats can collect traces of other grains while they are grown, stored and milled.
Zest the lemon before you juice it, and stir the zest into the maple syrup first. The lemon oils spread through the jar better than zest dropped straight into cold milk.
Frozen raspberries turn the mix pink and a little looser as they thaw. If you want whole berries and a thicker texture, keep fresh ones aside and add them in the morning.
