Lou’s Raspberry Matcha Overnight Chia-Oats
Prep the night before, ready in minutes come morning.
INGREDIENTS• 45 grams rolled oats• 20 grams chia seeds• 1 teaspoons Superfeast Tremella Matcha• 80 milliliters Bonsoy (or 100g yoghurt)• 0.5 cups water (or swap for extra milk/yoghurt)• 15 milliliters maple syrup• 1 pinch salt• 165 grams frozen raspberries, to serve• 1 teaspoons dried ginger powder (optional)• 1 teaspoons vanilla paste, a squeeze (optional)
STEPS1. Mix liquids: The night before: add your wet ingredients - 80 milliliters milk of choosing (or 100g yoghurt), 0.5 cups water (or swap for extra milk/yoghurt), and 15 milliliters maple syrup - to a glass jar.2. Add dry ingredients: Add 45 grams rolled oats, 20 grams chia seeds, and 1 pinch salt (plus 1 teaspoons dried ginger powder (optional) and 1 teaspoons vanilla paste, a squeeze (optional) if using), then shake well.3. Let it settle: Allow the mixture to sit for five minutes, then shake well again - this helps get rid of any clumps.4. Chill overnight: Refrigerate overnight, or for at least 2–3 hours.5. Defrost berries: Place 165 grams frozen raspberries, to serve in a separate bowl in the fridge to defrost alongside the chia-oats.6. Add matcha: In the morning, just before serving, add 1 teaspoons Superfeast Tremella Matcha to the chia-oats and shake well.7. Assemble: Pour the oats into a bowl and top with the defrosted raspberries.
NOTESAdding the matcha in the morning (rather than the night before) keeps its flavour and colour fresh. If you prefer a thicker consistency, skip the water and use extra milk or yoghurt instead. The creator uses Queen brand vanilla paste (the black tube).
