Servings: 2 servings
Calories: 471kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ¼ cup hulled hemp seeds
- 2 teaspoon chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon ground flaxseed
- 1.5 cups plant milk adjust to preference*
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin seed butter
- 2 teaspoon maple syrup adjust to taste preference
Instructions
- Add the rolled oats, hemp seeds and ground flaxseed to a mason jar or a container that can be sealed.
- Pour in the milk and maple syrup, and spoon in the pumpkin seed butter. Stir well so the milk is evenly distributed amongst the oats and seeds. Place in the refrigerator for about two hours, giving it a stir after 30 minutes if you can.
- Serve with toppings of your choice, such as fresh fruit or more suitable nut or seed butter.
Notes
*If you like a thicker overnight oats recipe, use about quarter cup less of the plant milk.
- Stir before putting in the refrigerator and before serving so the milk evenly distributes amongst the oats and seeds.
- Almond butter can be used instead of pumpkin seed butter, if that works for you. It will mean the recipe isn't nut free (note that hemp seeds are botanically a nut, but not a tree nut).
- Nutritional information is auto-generated and should be understood to be an estimate.
- plant milks have different scores, and seem quite individual, so use the type you tolerate best.
- pumpkin seeds score 0, but pumpkin seed butter isn't specifically mentioned.
