Ingredients

Cinnamon Date Milk

  • 1 ½ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 medium Medjool dates
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Overnight Oats

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon ground chia seeds

Topping

  • 1 tablespoon plant-based yogurt (plain, not sweetened)
Cups - Metric

Instructions

For the Cinnamon Date Milk:

  • Combine the almond milk, dates, and spices in a high-speed blender. Blend on low to combine, then gradually increase the speed to create a smooth consistency. Pour approximately ¼ cup of this milk into a small bowl.

For the Overnight Oats:

  • Stir together oats and chia seeds in a mixing bowl. Pour in most of the remaining cinnamon date milk from the blender in with the oats. Stir to combine, cover, and refrigerate for at least an hour or up to overnight.
    A milk mixture is being poured from a blender into a bowl with oats.

For the Topping:

  • Add a tablespoon of plant-based yogurt to the reserved cinnamon date milk and mix to combine. Cover and refrigerate until you're ready to serve.

To Serve:

  • Transfer oats to serving dishes. Use a spoon to drizzle the yogurt topping over the oats, creating circles that resemble cinnamon rolls, if you'd like.Add cinnamon sticks before serving for dramatic presentation.

Notes

If you'd rather not use dates, you can substitute 1 to 2 tablespoons of maple syrup.
