Cardamom Pistachio Overnight Steel Cut Oats
All the delicious flavors of baklava come together to form delicious healthy oatmeal perfect for meal-prep! This can be made 5 days in advance and will not get soggy.
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup steel cut oats
- 2/3 cup milk of choice (My favorite is homemade almond milk. Coconut milk and whole milk would also be delicious.)
- 1/4 tsp cardamom
- 1 tsp maple syrup May need more to taste. My almond milk is sweet.
- 1/2 tbsp chia seeds
- 2 tbsp ground pistachios, roasted & unsalted
Instructions
-
Grind the pistachios. I used a coffee grinder, but a food processor would also work well. If chopping by hand, make sure they're as fine as possible.
-
Combine all ingredients in a jar and shake vigorously. Store in fridge overnight, then give it a small shake before digging in.
Recipe Notes
For extra protein, add a big scoop of plain greek yogurt! If you're a topping kind of person, I recommend fresh fruit and a handful of granola.
Make sure your pistachios are finely ground. Leaving them in crunchy chunks sounds like a good idea, but they'll absorb the milk overnight and will lose that crunch.
