- 1 cup whole milk (full-fat milk) or skim, low fat or plant based milk
- 3 teaspoons chia seeds

- 1 teaspoon ground cardamom

Instructions
- Stir together oats, yogurt, milk, chia seeds, saffron, cardamom powder, crushed almonds, and honey, in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
- Cover the bowl with a lid and refrigerate for 6-8 hours or overnight.
- If you are in a hurry, you can soak the oats for a minimum of 2-3 hours. They will not be as soft though.
- Add more milk if the oats are too thick and mix well.
- Top with more crushed almonds and serve chilled.
- Note - If you like the oats hot, then you can heat them in a pan before serving.
Notes
To meal prep, transfer the overnight oats into small jars and grab one jar to have on the go.
