Two ways to make overnight oats
Banana & chia seed overnight oats
We can’t even begin to tell you how tasty this is on a morning. If you’re worried about what is essentially cold porridge not being your thing, don’t be.
This one’s tried and tested by Holland & Barrett and has had great reviews. Get your hit of filling chia seeds to keep hunger pangs at bay.

Method
1
Throw your banana, almond milk and yogurt into a blender and blend until the consistency is smooth.
2
Pour the mixture into bowls (or glasses like ours).
3
Stir in all your oats.
4
Cover, then pop your bowls or glasses in the fridge for a minimum of 4 hours - preferably overnight.
5
Top with blueberries, raspberries and finally, supercharge with a sprinkling of chia seeds for a hit of extra goodness.
Kefir overnight oats
Kefir is thicker than milk and thinner than yogurt, giving it the perfect consistency to make thick, creamy porridge.
Method
1
Combine the oats, chia seeds, coconut kefir drink and plant-based milk in a jar or bowl.
2
Stir through the maple syrup. If you are using cinnamon and vanilla, stir these through now, too.
3
Cover and leave in the fridge overnight.
4
The next morning add chopped banana and apricot (or any fresh fruit you are using) into the bottom of the jar to serve.
5
Add the oats mixture and top with more fruit, nut butter and coconut flakes or granola.
6
If you want to make your oats a little thinner, stir in a splash more milk before adding to the jar to serve.
