Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen: blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)

1/4 cup chopped nuts (almonds or walnuts, optional)

1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) if you're planning to bake the oatmeal rings for a firmer texture, or skip this step for a softer, no-bake version.

    Prepare the Oatmeal Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, Greek yogurt, almond milk, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Stir until all ingredients are well integrated and the mixture is creamy.

      Add the Berries: Gently fold in the mixed berries. If you're using frozen berries, ensure they are not too frozen so that they can mix well with the oatmeal without breaking down too much.

        Incorporate Nuts & Coconut: If desired, add the chopped nuts and shredded coconut, stirring until they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

          Shape the Rings: Line a muffin tin (or silicone mold for easier removal) with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Spoon the oatmeal mixture into each muffin cup, pressing down gently to shape them into rings. Use the back of a spoon or your fingers to create an even, compact surface.

            Bake (Optional): If you want a firmer texture, bake the oatmeal rings in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden and set. If you prefer a soft texture, skip this step and move to freezing.

              Chill in the Freezer: If you baked the rings, let them cool completely before transferring to the freezer. If you skipped baking, place the muffin tin directly into the freezer. Freeze for at least 3 hours or until solid.

                Serve: Once fully frozen, remove the rings from the molds and enjoy immediately or store them in an airtight container in the freezer. They make for a perfect quick breakfast or snack option!

                  Garnish (Optional): Before serving, drizzle with a little extra honey or maple syrup and sprinkle with fresh berries or nuts as a garnish.
