Citrus Spiced Overnight Oats

Bright citrus, warm spice, and oats that worked while you slept.

Servings: 4
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Chill Time: 8 hours (overnight)

Ingredients:

1¾ cups plain kefir (or almond milk or other nut milk), plus extra for serving if needed
1 Tbsp honey, warmed (plus extra for drizzling)
2 tsp orange zest
¾ cup fresh orange juice
1 tsp grated nutmeg
¾ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp salt
1 generous pinch ground cardamom
1½ cups rolled oats
2 Tbsp chia seeds
3 oranges, peeled and cut into segments
⅔ cup toasted walnuts, chopped
Pomegranate arils, for serving (optional)

In a large bowl, whisk together the kefir (or almond milk), honey, orange zest, orange juice, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt and cardamom.
Stir in the rolled oats and chia seeds until well combined.
Cover and refrigerate overnight (about 8 hours) so the oats soften and absorb the liquid.
When ready to serve, stir well and add a splash more kefir or almond milk if needed to loosen the oats.
Roughly chop half of the orange segments and fold them into the oats along with half of the chopped walnuts.
Spoon into bowls and top with the remaining orange segments, walnuts, a drizzle of honey and pomegranate arils if using
