Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup coconut milk (or any milk of choice)

1 tablespoon matcha powder

1 tablespoon maple syrup (adjust to taste)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup shredded coconut (unsweetened)

1/2 ripe banana, sliced

Fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, or your choice) for topping

Chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, or your choice) for topping

A pinch of sea salt

Instructions
 

In a medium mixing bowl, start by combining the rolled oats, matcha powder, and a pinch of sea salt. Whisk together to ensure the matcha is evenly distributed among the oats.

    Add the coconut milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the mixture. Stir well until everything is thoroughly combined.

      Gently fold in the shredded coconut. This adds texture and enhances the coconut flavor.

        Transfer the mixture into two jars or airtight containers, dividing it evenly.

          Top each jar with sliced bananas, pressing them gently into the oat mixture.

            Seal the jars tightly and refrigerate them overnight (or for at least 4 hours) to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and soften.

              In the morning, give the oats a good stir. Add toppings as desired, such as fresh berries and chopped nuts for added crunch and flavor.

                Serve chilled directly from the jar, or pour into a bowl if you prefer. Enjoy your refreshing and energizing Light Matcha Coconut Overnight Oats!
