Base Ingredients
- ½ cup quick oats
- ½ cup cooked quinoa
- 1 cup non-dairy milk
- 2 tbsp non-dairy yogurt (plus more for drizzling)
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tsp cinnamon (plus more for dusting)
- Mix Ingredients: In a jar or two jars, combine the quick oats, cooked quinoa, non-dairy milk, chia seeds, non-dairy yogurt, maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. Stir thoroughly to ensure everything is evenly mixed.
- Refrigerate: Seal the jar(s) and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours. This allows the oats and quinoa to absorb the liquid and flavors fully, creating a creamy, pudding-like texture.
- Prepare for Serving: Before serving, dust the top with additional cinnamon for extra warmth and aroma. Place extra non-dairy yogurt into a ziplock bag, cut out a small corner, and pipe a swirl onto the oats for a pretty and tasty presentation.
- Enjoy: Grab a spoon and dig into this delicious, healthy breakfast that tastes just like a cinnamon roll but without the guilt and dairy.
Notes
- Use flavored non-dairy yogurt such as vanilla to add extra sweetness.
- For added texture, top with chopped nuts or seeds before serving.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup to taste.
- Quinoa adds extra protein and nutrients, but you can substitute with more oats if preferred.
- Refrigerated oats can be stored up to 3 days, making it great for meal prep.
