Basic Overnight Rolled Oats

In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, milk, chia seeds, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.

Stir well until all ingredients are fully mixed and the oats are evenly coated.

Transfer the oat mixture into a mason jar or an airtight container.

Seal the container and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours, to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and soften.

In the morning, give the oats a good stir. Add your favorite toppings such as fresh fruits, nuts, or yogurt before serving.
