This recipe makes a jar of delicious overnight oats made with raspberries, blueberries and chia seeds. These overnight oats are healthy and filling so they are the perfect start to the day.
Although I love to enjoy these oats for breakfast, they can be enjoyed any time of day. I even sometimes enjoy them as a dessert. What I mainly love about these oats is that they are a great way to get many vitamins and minerals into one meal. They are full of fibre which we know is good for gut health and the fruit, nuts and seeds are packed with nutrients that are important for health.
The recipe is so easy and take around 10 minutes to prepare with no cooking time. If your mornings are very busy then these oats are ideal. Just prepare them before bed and enjoy in the morning.
