Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups plant milk oat or almond
  • 1 fresh lemon zest and juice
  • Graham crackers crushed (for topping)
  • Vegan lemon curd optional
  • Pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. In two jars, add 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1 tablespoon chia seeds, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and a pinch of salt each.
  2. Pour in 3/4 cup plant milk, zest of half a lemon, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice into each jar. Stir thoroughly to prevent clumping.
  3. Seal jars and refrigerate overnight (or at least 5 hours) until oats are soft and creamy.
  4. When ready to serve, top with crushed graham crackers for crunch and add a spoonful of vegan lemon curd if desired.

Notes

Mix ingredients well to avoid chia seed clumps. Don’t add graham crackers until serving to keep them crunchy. Refrigerate at least 5 hours or overnight for best texture.
