A wholesome and quick overnight oats recipe infused with matcha powder, Greek yogurt, and natural sweeteners for a creamy, energizing breakfast that supports calm alertness and sustained energy.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (45g) rolled oats
  • 1 tsp culinary-grade matcha powder
  • 3/4 cup (180ml) milk of choice (unsweetened almond milk recommended)
  • 1/4 cup (60g) Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for dairy-free)
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds (optional)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Sift the matcha powder using a small sieve into a medium bowl or directly into your mason jar to remove clumps (1-2 minutes).
  2. Add 3/4 cup (180ml) milk of choice, 1/4 cup (60g) Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the matcha. Whisk gently until fully dissolved and vibrant green (2-3 minutes).
  3. Stir in 1/2 cup (45g) rolled oats and 1 tablespoon chia seeds if using, ensuring everything is evenly combined (1 minute).
  4. Transfer the mixture to a mason jar or airtight container if mixed in a bowl and seal tightly (1 minute).
  5. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to allow oats and chia seeds to soften (6+ hours).
  6. The next morning, stir the oats gently. Add a splash of milk if too thick. Top with fresh berries, nuts, or preferred toppings. Serve chilled (2 minutes).

Notes

Sifting matcha powder is key to avoid clumps. Use rolled oats for best texture. Refrigerate at least 6 hours for optimal softness. Adjust sweetness and milk type to taste. Add toppings just before serving to maintain texture. Can add protein powder or hemp seeds for extra nutrition. Store in airtight containers for up to 3 days.
