Ingredients

  • ½ cup old fashioned rolled oats gluten free, if required
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon or cardamom*
  • ½ cup plant milk more, to preference
  • cup applesauce
  • ½ teaspoon maple syrup

Instructions

  • Combine rolled oats, chia seeds and cinnamon (or cardamom) in a mason jar or container that can be sealed.
  • Pour in the plant milk, applesauce and maple syrup. Stir well so the oats are soaked in the milk and applesauce.
  • Transfer the oats to the fridge for at least 2 hours. Adjust with more plant milk to serve, if you like a looser consistency.
  • Optional: add cooked diced apple, other fruits, nuts or seeds to top your overnight oats.

Notes

*Cinnamon is debated in terms of histamine. My low histamine readers may prefer to use cardamom.
  • It is best to use rolled oats rather than steel cut oats (which are too dense) or fine quick-cook oats (which can be overly mushy).
  • If vanilla extract works for you, a dash of a quarter teaspoon can be used.
  • Some people like to add a pinch of salt to their oats.
  • While you can keep the prepared oats in the fridge overnight, I would suggest that my low histamine readers would want to prep and store for about 2 hours. That may be too much time for some readers due to histamine formation.
  • Nutritional information is auto-generated and should be understood to be an estimate.
 
Swiss Interest Group Histamine Intolerance
All ingredients score 0 on the SIGHI list, with the exception of:
  • applesauce will depend upon ingredients used. It would likely be best to make homemade applesauce.
  • plant milks have various scores.
  • cinnamon scores 0 on the SIGHI list, but is rated higher on other lists. Cardamom (scores 0, but with a note that some varieties may not be well tolerated), can be used as a swap.
