Ingredients
Scale
Matcha Mixture
- 1 teaspoon matcha powder
- 1 Tablespoon warm water
Oats Mixture
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 Tablespoons chia seeds
- 3/4 cup oat milk (or any plant-based milk subbed 1:1)
- 1/4 cup vegan yogurt
- 2 Tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)
Instructions
- Prepare Matcha: Whisk together the matcha powder and warm water until the mixture is smooth and free of clumps, creating a vibrant green matcha base.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine rolled oats and chia seeds, stirring to evenly distribute the chia throughout.
- Combine All Ingredients: Add the oat milk, vegan yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla bean paste, and the prepared matcha to the oats and chia seeds. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture forms a smooth, thick batter.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Pour the matcha oat batter evenly into two jars or containers, cover with lids, and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquids and flavors.
- Serve: Remove from the fridge the next morning and enjoy as is or top with your favorite additions such as extra vegan yogurt, sliced kiwi, blueberries, or dried coconut for added texture and flavor.
Notes
- Use warm water to better dissolve the matcha powder and avoid clumps.
- Chia seeds help thicken the oats mixture and add extra fiber and omega-3s.
- You can substitute oat milk with any other plant-based milk such as almond, soy, or coconut milk on a 1:1 ratio.
- Maple syrup can be adjusted to taste or replaced with another liquid sweetener like agave nectar.
- Keep the oats refrigerated and consume within 2-3 days for optimal freshness.
- Try adding fresh fruits or nuts as toppings for extra flavor and nutrition.
