Instructions
- First, make the blueberry compote.
Put blueberries, maple syrup, lemon juice, and water in a small saucepan. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes over low heat, stirring every so often, until the blueberries pop and the sauce gets thicker. Let it cool.
- Combine the Oats Base
Put rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, vanilla essence, cinnamon, and maple syrup in a mason jar and stir them together. Mix well. - Put the Oats and Blueberry Compote on top of each other.
Put half of the oat mixture in the jar, then add a layer of blueberry compote, and last, add the rest of the oats. - Put a lid on it and chill it overnight.
Close the jar and put it in the fridge overnight (or at least four hours) so the oats can soak up the flavors. - Add toppings and serve
Before serving, stir the oats in the morning and add crushed graham crackers, more blueberries, and a little honey.
