01 - 1 cup rolled oats
02 - 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
03 - 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
04 - 1 tablespoon chia seeds

→ Flavor

05 - 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons culinary grade matcha powder

02 - Stir in rolled oats and chia seeds until fully combined.
03 - Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight to allow oats to absorb the liquid and develop flavor.
04 - In the morning, stir the oats well and add a splash of milk if a thinner consistency is preferred.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It's the kind of breakfast that feels indulgent but actually fuels you for hours without the crash.
  • No cooking required—just five minutes of stirring and your breakfast is done for the next morning.
  • The matcha brings this subtle, slightly sweet earthiness that makes you feel like you're taking care of yourself.
02 -
  • Don't skip whisking the matcha first—if you dump it on top of the milk, you'll end up with green clumps that refuse to cooperate.
  • The oats will thicken more as they sit, so what seems slightly loose at night will be perfect by morning; resist the urge to add too much milk upfront.
03 -
  • Make a double batch on Sunday and you'll have four mornings of breakfast ready to go—it keeps beautifully for up to four days in the fridge.
  • If you want extra richness without more sweetness, swap some of the almond milk for coconut milk or use full-fat Greek yogurt.
