Ingredients

1/2 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup milk (or plant-based milk like almond or coconut)

1/4 cup Greek yogurt

Instructions

In a mason jar or airtight container, combine the rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, shredded coconut, and chia seeds (if using). Stir well to combine.
Add the chopped cherries and vanilla extract to the mixture. Stir again until everything is evenly mixed.
If you prefer a sweeter oats base, add honey or maple syrup and stir to combine.
Seal the container and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours, allowing the oats to soak and absorb the liquid.
In the morning, give the oats a quick stir, and they’re ready to enjoy! You can add more fresh cherries or coconut flakes on top for extra flavor and texture.

Notes

Vegan: Use plant-based milk (like almond, soy, or coconut milk) and opt for a dairy-free yogurt.
Add-ins: Include your favorite toppings like granola, almonds, or chia seeds for a crunchier texture.
Sweetener options: You can use maple syrup, agave, or stevia as alternatives to honey for a different flavor profile.
Fruit variations: Replace cherries with other fruits like blueberries, strawberries, or raspberries for a different twist.
Storage: Can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. No need to reheat – just stir and enjoy.
