# How-To Steps:

02 - Add rolled oats and chia seeds to the mixture and stir until fully combined.
03 - Cover and chill overnight or for at least 8 hours to allow flavors to meld and oats to soften.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It does all the thinking for you the night before, leaving your mornings calm and unhurried.
  • The earthiness of matcha paired with creamy oats hits that sweet spot between indulgent and nourishing.
  • It's naturally beautiful, the kind of breakfast that feels special without any real effort.
02 -
  • Whisk the matcha slowly to avoid lumps that will never dissolve no matter how long they sit, or you'll bite into little bitter pockets.
  • The oats absorb liquid differently depending on how old they are, so taste and adjust the milk in the morning rather than trying to predict it the night before.
03 -
  • Keep your matcha in an airtight container away from light and heat, and it'll stay that brilliant green for months instead of fading to a dull olive.
  • Make three jars at once if you have the space, and you'll have breakfast handled for three mornings without thinking about it at all.
