Ingredients

  • 2 cups old fashioned rolled ats
  • 2 cups kefir
  • 1.3 cups milk of choice
  • 4-8 tablespoon chia seeds use 2 tablespoon per jar if you wish for a thicker texture
  • 2 tablespoon maple syrup

Instructions

  • Add equal parts oats, chia seeds, kefir and maple syrup to a sealable container. Stir very well to thoroughly combine oats with the kefir.
  • Top off with about ¼-1/3 cup milk of choice and stir well. If you are using 2 tablespoon of chia seeds per serving, definitely use the larger amount of milk, since chia seeds absorb a lot of liquid.
  • Seal jar and store in the fridge for at least 4 hours, and up to 4 days. When ready to eat, top with your favorite fruit, nuts and seeds or nut butter toppings.

Notes

Store in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Do not use quick oats if making multiple jars. Quick oats are great for single-serve prep that you plan to eat quickly, but they do get mushy if left for more than a day. Quick oats are also good if you want to enjoy oats within an hour or two since they take less time to break down and soften.
