Introduction

Breakfast is a super important meal because it gives us the energy we need to start our day, especially if we’re going to do fun activities like biking. Let’s learn how to make a yummy breakfast called overnight oats with raspberries. It’s easy to make and perfect for a busy morning!

The Importance of Breakfast

Eating breakfast helps us think better and do well in school or play. After sleeping all night, our bodies need food to get energy again. A good breakfast has things like carbohydrates, protein, and healthy fats to keep us going strong all day.

Ingredients for Overnight Oats

To make overnight oats with raspberries, you’ll need these ingredients:

  • Oats: These are the main part of the recipe and give us energy that lasts a long time.
  • Milk: Low-fat milk makes the oats creamy and adds protein.
  • Yogurt: Low-fat yogurt adds more protein and is good for our tummies.
  • Raspberries: These tasty berries have lots of vitamins and are good for us.

How to Make Overnight Oats

Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients

Make sure you have everything ready:

  • ½ cup of low-fat milk
  • ¼ cup of low-fat yogurt
  • ½ cup of oats
  • Fresh raspberries

Step 2: Combine the Ingredients

  1. In a bowl, pour in ½ cup of low-fat milk.
  2. Add ¼ cup of low-fat yogurt to the milk.
  3. Stir in ½ cup of oats. Mix everything together well.

Step 3: Prepare for Refrigeration

  1. Put the mixture into a jar or container.
  2. Top it with fresh raspberries.

Step 4: Refrigerate Overnight

Cover the jar and put it in the fridge overnight. This helps the oats soak up the liquid and become soft and creamy.
