Matcha Overnight Oats (Printable)

Creamy overnight oats infused with earthy matcha, wholesome chia seeds, and natural sweetness for a refreshing breakfast.

# What You Need:

01 - 1 cup rolled oats

02 - 1 tablespoon chia seeds

03 - 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

04 - 1 teaspoon matcha green tea powder

05 - 1 ¼ cups milk (dairy or plant-based)

06 - ½ banana, sliced

07 - 1 tablespoon toasted coconut flakes

08 - 1 tablespoon chopped almonds or pistachios

09 - Fresh berries

01 - In a medium bowl or jar, whisk together the milk and matcha powder until smooth and no lumps remain.

02 - Add the oats, chia seeds, and honey or maple syrup to the matcha milk mixture. Stir thoroughly to combine all ingredients.

03 - Cover and refrigerate overnight, or at least 6 hours, to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and soften properly.

04 - In the morning, stir the oats thoroughly. Add a splash of milk if a looser consistency is desired.

05 - Divide into bowls or jars. Top with banana slices, coconut flakes, nuts, and berries as desired.

01 -

The earthy grassy notes of matcha mellow beautifully overnight creating a breakfast that tastes like a cafe treat without the morning rush effort
Theres something deeply satisfying about waking up to a ready made breakfast that actually looks gorgeous in the jar

02 -

Whisking the matcha into the milk first before adding any other ingredients is the difference between smooth creamy oats and a speckled disappointing mess
The oats continue softening the longer they sit so if you prefer some texture don't let them go longer than 24 hours

03 -

Let your oats sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before eating if you can because the flavors really pop when they're not ice cold
Toast your nuts and coconut flakes beforehand even if it seems like an extra step because the warmth and crunch is worth every minute
