Ingredients
 

Dry ingredients

  • ½ cup (55 g) gluten-free oats
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds
  • ¼ teaspoon poppy seeds
  • ½ teaspoon lemon zest from an organic lemon
  • 1 pinch of salt

Wet ingredients

  • ½ cup (120 ml) plant-based milk of choice I use unsweetened soy milk
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1-2 teaspoons maple syrup optional
  • 2 tablespoons plant-based yogurt I use unsweetened soy yogurt

Instructions
 

  • Zest the lemon.
  • Hand adding poppy seeds to a glass jar with oats and lemon zest.
    Dry ingredients: Add the oats, chia seeds, poppy seeds, lemon zest, and salt to a lidded jar or small container and give it a good mix.
  • Spoon stirring in lemon overnight oats.
    Combine: Pour the plant-based milk, lemon juice, and maple syrup (if using) into the jar or container with the dry ingredients. Stir in the yogurt. Close them with a lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight.
  • Three lemon poppy seed overnight oats in closed glass jars.
    Repeat: If you want to prep more servings ahead of time, simply repeat to process and prep 2-4 individual jars.

Notes

  1. If you don't have individual jars, you can make a big batch in a large container. Just make sure it has a lid.
  2. Add hemp seeds for an extra dose of plant protein. By adding 1 tablespoon of hemp seeds per serving, you can increase the protein content of your breakfast by 3 grams.
