02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Mix and Chill Oats

Start by adding the oats, coconut sugar, and almond butter into a small jar with a tight lid, like a Ball mason jar. Give it a good shake or stir to mix everything together, then pop the lid on and stick it in the fridge for at least 8 hours, or overnight. When you’re ready to eat, pour some hot water into the jar and put the lid back on. Let it sit for about 3 to 5 minutes so the oats can soak up the water. Give it a good stir to combine everything, and enjoy!

03 / EXTRA DETAILS

Good to know.

Cook's tip

- Use old-fashioned rolled oats for the best texture.
- Stir well before refrigerating to evenly distribute ingredients.
- Adjust the liquid amount if you prefer thicker or creamier oats.

Serving ideas

Enjoy these jars cold straight from the fridge or let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften. Top with fresh fruit, nuts, or a drizzle of honey to add extra flavor and crunch.

Storage & leftovers

Store the jars in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Keep lids tightly sealed to maintain freshness and prevent odors from other foods. If you want to prepare multiple jars, make sure to layer toppings separately to keep them crisp.
