Overnight Oats Method

To make these as overnight oats, add everything to a container and mix well, making sure it’s well combined and the chia seeds are all mixed in. Place in the fridge overnight. In the morning, enjoy cold with your favourite toppings.

Stovetop Method

To make these stovetop, simply add everything to a saucepan, cook until thick and enjoy! I like to use rolled oats for their thick, chewy texture but you can use quick or minute oats to reduce the cooking time.

  • chocolate chips or cacao nibs

  2. Looks like you are having loads of fun and that coffee, oh that coffee in your first shot, I wish I had it right now. I love coffee so much I have every appliance or utensil there is to make coffee.

  3. omg Music Festivals are my favorite! First of all, I love concerts, I just can’t get enough (my husband can!). But when a concert gets spread over 2 days of outdoor fun than I am in heaven! Anyhow, I know that’s not the total point of this post but it’s got me all looking forward to my next show! Thank you for the recipe, it looks delicious. I do love my coffee and am half Italian but never tried LaVazza
