Simple and easy to prepare, make these oats the night before to have you out the door in no time. Instead of buying almond milk and other items we make it and then add our oats and other flavouring ingredients.

INGREDIENTS

3 cups (720 ml) water
1 cup (150 g) raw almonds
1 large (160 g) banana, peeled, divided use
1 cinnamon stick, 3" (7cm)
2 Tablespoons (15 g) chia seeds
1½ cups (130 g) rolled oats
½ cup (55 g) chopped walnuts

DIRECTIONS

1. Place the water, almonds, 1/2 of the banana and cinnamon stick into the Vitamix container and secure the lid. Start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed. Blend for 60 seconds.
2. Remove the lid and add the chia, oats, remaining banana and walnuts. Secure the lid and Select Variable 6. Pulse 4-5 times until the chia, oats and walnuts have been incorporated.
3. Portion into glass jars, cover and refrigerate overnight. Top with your favorite toppings and enjoy.

Chef's Notes

Totally customisable, this recipe can be made any way you like as long as you keep the oat to almond milk ratio the same. Try blueberries, cherries, sweet roasted squash or sweet potato.
