Strawberry Overnight Oat Jars

It’s strawberry season here in the UK, which is the perfect excuse to make these Strawberry Overnight Oat Jars. I’ve been in such a breakfast rut lately, but these jars have had me hopping out of bed for breakfast the past few days! Also, my toddler loves them too. Layered up with yoghurt and a delicious strawberry chia jam, these are going to be your new breakfast staple.

For the overnight oat layer I used these new Linwoods Energy Strawberry Overnight Oats which are genuinely an incredible product. Not only do they taste amazing, but they’re incredibly simple and quick to whip up. All you do is add milk and let them work their magic. They’re a great source of B vitamins, fibre and omega 3, perfect to keep you feeling energised throughout the morning.

Ingredients

  

For the overnight oats:

• 1 cup oats I like to use Linwoods Energy Strawberry Overnight Oats for extra strawberry flavour and goodness – linked above
• 1 cup milk of choice such as oat or soya milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract optional
• 1-2 tsp maple or agave syrup (optional – to sweeten)
• 1 pinch salt

For the strawberry chia jam:

• 2 cups fresh or frozen strawberries ends removed and chopped in half
• 1-2 tsp maple or agave syrup (optional – to sweeten)
• 2 tbsp whole chia seeds

For serving

• 1 cup yoghurt of choice I used Alpro Soya Yoghurt
• 5-6 fresh strawberries, diced for topping
• Toasted coconut flakes for topping
• Maple or agave syrup

Instructions

 

• Make the overnight oats by adding all the ingredients to a medium bowl, stirring well and then covering and leaving to soak in the fridge for 2 hours or overnight.
• Make the chia jam by adding the strawberries and sweetener (if using) to a saucepan over a medium heat. When they start to soften and the juices start to release, mash the strawberries down with the back of a fork. Simmer for 5-10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the chia seeds – let the mixture gel up and thicken.
• Layer up the jars with the overnight oats, chia jam and yoghurt, topping with the fresh strawberries. Enjoy!
