Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon key lime zest (or lime zest)
  • 1/2 teaspoon matcha powder (optional, for color)
  • 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 3 tablespoons key lime juice (or lime juice)
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Toppings

  • Extra Greek yogurt, for topping
  • Crushed graham crackers, for topping

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Add the rolled oats, chia seeds, key lime zest, matcha powder (if using), plain Greek yogurt, key lime juice, almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to a bowl or jar.
  2. Mix Thoroughly: Stir all the ingredients until well combined, ensuring the oats and chia seeds are evenly coated with the liquid mixture.
  3. Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the bowl or jar and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours, allowing the oats to soak and absorb the flavors fully.
  4. Serve: In the morning, give the oats a good stir and top with extra Greek yogurt and crushed graham crackers to mimic the classic key lime pie crust texture, then enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • For a vegan version, replace Greek yogurt with non-dairy yogurt.
  • Matcha powder is optional and adds a subtle green color and antioxidant boost without affecting flavor significantly.
  • Use fresh key lime juice for the best authentic tart flavor, or substitute with regular lime juice if unavailable.
  • Crushed graham crackers can be replaced with crushed nuts or granola for added texture.
  • Adjust the maple syrup to taste for sweetness preference.
