Instructions

In a glass jar or container, combine the rolled oats, 1/3 cup of milk, and 1 teaspoon of maple syrup. Stir well to ensure the oats are fully submerged.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the chia seeds, pistachio butter, the remaining 1/3 cup of milk, and 1 teaspoon of maple syrup until no clumps remain.
Carefully pour the pistachio chia mixture over the oat layer in the jar.
Cover the jar and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the oats and chia seeds to soften and absorb the liquid.
Before serving, remove the jar from the refrigerator. Spoon the Greek yogurt evenly over the top of the pistachio layer.
Garnish with fresh mixed berries and a sprinkle of chopped pistachios.

Notes

For a smoother pistachio layer, use pistachio butter instead of ground nuts.

Adjust the amount of maple syrup to your desired level of sweetness.

To make this recipe vegan, use plant-based milk (such as almond or oat) and a dairy-free yogurt.

The overnight oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, but it is best to add the toppings just before serving.
