Preparation Instructions
- In a mason jar or airtight container, combine rolled oats, chia seeds, and hemp hearts with a pinch of salt. Stir well to ensure that the chia seeds are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Pour in the unsweetened soy milk and maple syrup. Stir for about 30 seconds to thoroughly moisten all the oats and blend the flavors together.
- Seal the container tightly and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and soften.
- In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If they are too thick for your liking, add a splash of soy milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Serve the oats with sliced banana or your favorite toppings before enjoying immediately, or take it on the go for a nutritious breakfast.
Notes
Optional: Drizzle with extra maple syrup for added sweetness.
