Vanilla-Cranberry Overnight Oatmeal

Overnight oats can simplify your morning routine while still providing a hearty, nutritious breakfast. You can prepare this in a 2-cup mason jar or other to-go container if you usually transport your breakfast.

Ingredients

⅓ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
⅓ cup low-fat plain yogurt
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup water
1 ½ tablespoons almond butter
1 tablespoon dried cranberries
1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
⅓ cup fresh or (thawed) frozen berries, sliced if large
1 tablespoon toasted sliced almonds

Directions

Place oats in a small bowl or mason jar. Add yogurt, vanilla, and water; mix well. Cover with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate overnight (or for up to 2 days).
Just before serving, gently stir in almond butter, dried cranberries, and ground flaxseed. Top with berries and almonds.
