Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)

2 tablespoons pure maple syrup

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chopped pecans (toasted for extra flavor)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fresh fruit for topping (such as sliced bananas or berries)

Additional maple syrup for drizzling (optional)

Instructions
 

In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir well until all the ingredients are completely combined.

    Add the vanilla extract and half of the chopped pecans to the mixture, stirring gently to incorporate them.

      Divide the oats mixture into two airtight containers or jars. Make sure to leave some space at the top for toppings.

        Seal the containers and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4-5 hours) to allow the oats to soak and soften.

          In the morning, give the oats a good stir and check the consistency. If it’s too thick, you can add a splash of milk to achieve your desired consistency.

            Top the oats with fresh fruit, remaining chopped pecans, and a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.

              Enjoy your delicious and nutritious Maple Pecan Overnight Oats straight from the jar or transferred to a bowl!
