Ingredients:

- 1.5 cups (360ml) almond milk (or your choice of milk)
- 1 tablespoon (15ml) chia seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon (2.5ml) vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) honey or maple syrup for sweetness
- A pinch of salt
- For the Topping:
- 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
- 2 ripe bananas, sliced
- 1/4 cup (30g) toasted coconut flakes
- 1/4 cup (40g) chopped walnuts or almonds

Method:
- Begin by choosing a sizeable mixing bowl. Pour in the rolled oats followed by the almond milk. Stir them together, ensuring the oats are well submerged.
- Add in the chia seeds, vanilla extract, and your preferred sweetener (honey or maple syrup). Mix thoroughly.
- Once combined, cover the bowl with cling wrap or transfer the mixture to a jar with a tight-fitting lid.
- Let the oats soak and refrigerate overnight. This process allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid, resulting in a creamy, pudding-like texture.
- Come morning, give your overnight oats a good stir. If the consistency is too thick for your liking, you can add a splash of milk to loosen it up.
- Transfer your creamy oats into serving bowls.
- Top each bowl generously with diced mango and banana slices.
- Sprinkle on the toasted coconut flakes and your choice of chopped nuts for that much-needed crunch.
- If you’re in the mood for a tad more sweetness, drizzle some honey or maple syrup over the top. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a burst of color and freshness.
Tips:
- The versatility of overnight oats is unmatched. Feel free to mix and match fruits as per the season and your preference.
- For an added protein kick, consider adding a scoop of your favorite protein powder to the oats mixture before refrigeration.
- Overnight oats can be enjoyed cold straight out of the fridge or heated for a warm, comforting breakfast.
Serving Suggestions:
- Pair your Overnight Oats with Mangoes and Bananas with a cold glass of orange juice or a steaming cup of green tea.
- For those who enjoy a dairy-free twist, try using coconut or soy milk in place of almond milk.
- Experiment by adding a spoonful of nut butter for depth of flavor and added richness.
