Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats quick cooking
  • 1 cup orange juice freshly squeezed
  • ½ cup plain yogurt I used 0%
  • 2 teaspoons honey to taste
  • ¼ lemon (juiced) to taste
  • 1 pinch cinnamon to taste
  • 1 grated apple small
  • ½ cup blueberries to taste

Instructions

  • Add the oats to a bowl and pour in the orange juice.
    A glass jug pours orange liquid, likely orange juice, into a glass bowl filled with oats. The scene is set on a wooden table with bakery goods and bread visible in the background.
  • Mix well, making sure all the oats are saturated.
    A hand holding a whisk mixes oats and liquid in a glass bowl on a table, with a bakery display of bread and pastries in the background.
  • Seal the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the fridge for at least 4 hours, but overnight is best for the perfect texture.
    A glass bowl filled with yellow batter, covered with plastic wrap, sits on a table in a warmly lit kitchen. The table has a printed recipe sheet beneath the bowl. Shelves and kitchen items are blurred in the background.
  • Take the oats out of the fridge, uncover, and add in the yogurt, honey, cinnamon and lemon juice.
    A hand squeezes a yellow lemon squeezer over a glass bowl containing oats, yogurt, and cinnamon, with sunlight illuminating the ingredients and a bakery setting in the background.
  • Stir in the grated apple and fresh blueberries.

  • Make sure everything is well integrated.
    A hand holds a spoon scooping up a thick, yellowish, creamy mixture with visible grains from a glass bowl, lit by natural sunlight.
  • Scoop into individual cups or jars and top with fresh blueberries, walnuts and cinnamon, or any topping of your choice.

Notes

  • Use fresh-squeezed citrus (orange, clementine, blood orange, grapefruit) for the best flavor
  • Soak oats in juice for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight
  • Grate apple fresh in the morning to keep it crisp
  • Stir in yogurt, fruit, and toppings just before serving to preserve texture
  • Balance flavors: add honey if too tart, lemon if too sweet
  • Swap-ins: pears for apples, pecans/almonds/macadamias for walnuts, or pumpkin seeds for nut-free
  • Try vanilla or coconut yogurt for extra flavor
  • Garnish with cinnamon and a drizzle of honey or chopped dates for sweetness
  • Prep in individual jars for easy grab-and-go breakfasts
