- 135 g old-fashioned oats
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

- 1 tablespoon honey for drizzling
Instructions
- Whisk together 250 g full-fat Greek yogurt, 3 tablespoons honey, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 250 ml whole milk, ¼ teaspoon kosher salt, and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon in a large bowl until completely smooth
- Add the 135 g old-fashioned oats and stir until evenly coated with the Greek yogurt mixture.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate the overnight oats with Greek yogurt for at least 6 hours or overnight, until soft and creamy.
- Stir thoroughly and divide among four bowls. Add the 1 banana, sliced, 50 g blueberries , and 50 g walnuts, then drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of honey.
Notes
Whisk the base thoroughly: A completely smooth mixture distributes the honey, vanilla, and cinnamon evenly before adding the oats.
Choose old-fashioned oats: They soften during the six-hour chill while retaining a pleasantly textured consistency.
Keep the bowl covered: Covering the mixture throughout refrigeration helps the oats hydrate evenly.
Add toppings before serving: Waiting until the end keeps the walnuts firm and prevents the fruit from releasing moisture into the oats.
