Instructions
Instructions
- In a medium airtight container or glass mason jar, add all the ingredients in the order you like: oats, chia seeds, lemon zest, lemon juice, coconut milk, coconut yogurt, vanilla extract, sweetener, and eventually blueberries if you like.
- Stir well to combine, it should be runny not overly thick.
- Close the lid of the container, and place it in the fridge overnight, or for at least 3 hours. I recommend stirring after 1 hour to prevent the seeds from sinking to the bottom of the container.
- Stir all the topping ingredients together. Add 1-2 tablespoons of coconut milk or more yogurt if too thick to your liking. Spread on top of the overnight oats the day before or just before serving.
- Serve with extra lemon zest, desiccated coconut, blueberries, and crumbled shortbread cookies.
