Start by preparing overnight oats, which are oats that soak in milk overnight in the fridge.

Add 1/2 cup of rolled oats to a container.

For sweetness, add 2-3 teaspoons of brown sugar (or any sweetener of choice).

Add cinnamon and chia seeds for flavor and texture (optional).

Mix the ingredients together until well incorporated.

Add chopped fruit such as bananas, berries, mango, pear, or apples (optional).

Pour in 1/2 cup of 2% milk, adjusting the amount based on preference.

Seal the container and place it in the fridge for 12 hours up to 3-4 days.

The next morning, check the oats; if there's extra milk, you can drain some off.

Serve the overnight oats cold or reheat in the microwave if desired.
