1 tablespoon culinary grade matcha powder
1 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)

Instructions

Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl or jar, whisk together the almond milk, Greek yogurt, matcha powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until the matcha is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the rolled oats and chia seeds until everything is well combined, ensuring the oats are evenly soaked in the flavored liquid.
Fold in Strawberries: Gently fold in half of the chopped strawberries to distribute fruit flavor throughout the oats without breaking them down too much.
Refrigerate: Cover the bowl or jar and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. This resting time allows the oats and chia seeds to soften and thicken to a creamy consistency.
Serve: Before serving, stir the oats well. If a thinner consistency is preferred, add a splash of milk and mix. Top with the remaining fresh strawberries and sliced almonds for added texture and flavor. Serve chilled.

Notes

For a vegan version, use dairy-free yogurt and maple syrup instead of honey.
Adjust the sweetness according to your taste by varying the amount of maple syrup or honey.
To prevent clumps of matcha powder, blend the matcha with the milk first before mixing with other ingredients.
Overnight oats can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days for convenient meal prep.
