Ingredients

• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 2 tbsp chia seeds
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 1/2 cup mixed berries
• 1 tbsp honey

Instructions

1. Step 1: In a mixing bowl, combine 1/2 cup rolled oats, 2 tablespoons chia seeds, and 1 cup unsweetened almond milk. Stir thoroughly until the seeds and oats are evenly distributed.
2. Step 2: Cover the bowl and refrigerate overnight (at least 8 hours) to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken into a creamy texture.
3. Step 3: Before serving, layer half of the soaked oat mixture in a glass or bowl, then add 1/4 cup mixed berries and drizzle 1/2 tablespoon honey over them.
4. Step 4: Repeat layering with the remaining oat mixture and berries, finishing with the remaining honey on top. Serve chilled.
