Rolled oats turn soft and creamy as they rest overnight in cashew milk with fresh lemon juice, fragrant zest and a gentle touch of maple syrup. Add juicy raspberries right before serving for lively bursts of tart-sweet flavor and a beautiful pop of color. This simple vegan breakfast takes about five minutes to prepare, then chills while you sleep—an easy, lovely way to welcome the morning.

Notes

Make Ahead: Cover and refrigerate the oat mixture for at least 8 hours or overnight so the oats become tender and creamy. Add the raspberries just before serving for the brightest flavor and color.
Texture Tip: Stir the chilled oats before eating. If they feel too thick, add a small splash of cashew milk until soft and spoonable.
Storage: Keep the prepared oats covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; store raspberries separately when preparing several portions ahead.
Gluten-Free Option: For a gluten-free version, use certified gluten-free rolled oats to reduce the risk of gluten cross-contact.
