Ingredients
If you log this in Atlas later, start with the main ingredients below. The pattern engine cares more about the meal signal than a perfect kitchen diary.
- 60g rolled oats
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 240ml oat milk or semi-skimmed dairy milk
- 1 tbsp Greek yoghurt (optional, for creaminess)
- 1 tsp maple syrup or honey
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 80g mixed frozen berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries)
- 1 tbsp mixed seeds (pumpkin, sunflower, hemp)
- Pinch of cinnamon
Method
- 1
In a jar or container with a lid, combine the oats, chia seeds, milk, Greek yoghurt (if using), maple syrup, vanilla, and cinnamon. Stir well.
- 2
Place the frozen berries on top — they'll defrost overnight and create a natural sauce.
- 3
Seal and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
- 4
In the morning, give everything a good stir. Add a splash more milk if you prefer a looser consistency.
- 5
Top with mixed seeds before serving.
Why this works for PCOS/PMOS
Low-glycaemic foods release glucose slowly, preventing the blood sugar spikes that drive insulin resistance — the core metabolic issue in PCOS/PMOS.
