Ingredients

⅓ cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon almond butter
½ - 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup or honey
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
⅛ teaspoon almond extract, optional
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
⅓ cup milk of choice
½ cup oats

Instructions

In a small bowl or mason jar, stir the yogurt and almond butter together until smooth. Stir in the sweetener, extracts, and cinnamon. Add the milk and stir until combined, then stir in the oats.
Cover and refrigerate 4-6 hours or overnight.
The next day, give the oats a stir and add more milk or yogurt, if needed. Top or layer with fresh berries, toasted almonds, and mini chocolate chips. Finish with a drizzle of melted almond butter.

Notes

Adjust consistency. Add milk to thin, or thicken with almond butter, yogurt, or extra oats (let sit a few hours).
Oats matter. Use rolled oats for the best texture, or quick steel-cut oats for chew. Skip quick or instant oats—they get mushy.
Sweeten to taste. Adjust maple syrup, honey, or jam, or leave unsweetened.
Chia option. Stir in 1 tablespoon chia and increase milk and yogurt to ½ cup each; check before serving.
Protein boost. Add protein powder and adjust liquid, since brands thicken or thin differently.
Toppings. Store fruit, nuts, or other add-ins separately until serving.
