Overnight Oat Chia Parfait

Are you looking for a super quick and simple breakfast that you can take on the go or enjoy quickly before you head out the door? Then this breakfast is perfect for you. Overnight oat chia pudding parfait is a great way to ensure you get a hearty and filling breakfast on busy mornings or mornings when you just don’t want to make breakfast. I love this recipe because you can customize it by adding different fruits to your parfait.

The oats provide dietary fibre, which helps keep you full and satisfied between meals. The chia seeds also add dietary fibre and protein. The fruits of choice add vitamins, the peanut butter adds protein, and the hemp hearts add omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids. I also added a drizzle of honey for sweetness.

Let’s get into the recipe; Here is what you’ll need:

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup milk of choice (i used almond)
  • ¼ cup chia seeds
  • ¼ cup oats
  • 2 tablespoons help hearts
  • Fruit of choice (frozen or fresh)
  • Peanut butter
  • Honey
  • Granola (homemade; check out this blog for the recipe)

Directions:

  • In a small jar add milk, oats, chia and hemp. Place in the fridge overnight.
  • In the morning add fruit of choice, peanut butter, honey, granola, and any other toppings of choice
  • Enjoy!
