Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 ½ cups unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)

1 ripe pear, diced

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon maple syrup (adjust to taste)

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

¼ cup plain Greek yogurt (optional for creaminess)

2 tablespoons chopped walnuts (for crunch)

Pinch of salt

Additional pear slices and walnuts for topping (optional)

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, ground cinnamon, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until well mixed.

    Add the diced pear, Greek yogurt (if using), and a pinch of salt to the oat mixture. Gently fold in until all ingredients are well incorporated.

      Divide the mixture evenly into two or three jars or containers with lids. Make sure to pack it down slightly to ensure there are no air pockets.

        Seal the jars and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours) to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and flavors.

          In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If they’re too thick, feel free to add a splash more of almond milk.

            Top with additional diced pear, walnuts, and a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving. Drizzle with extra maple syrup if desired for added sweetness.
