Instructions:

1. Mix the Base:

In a bowl, mash the banana. Stir in oats, milk, chia seeds (if using), and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Mix until well combined.

2. Add Berries:

Stir through mashed or chopped raspberries. You can also save a few whole berries to place on top before serving.

3. Portion and Chill:

Spoon evenly into 4 toddler-sized containers. We recommend four Henley Cups — ideal for prepping, storing, and serving in one. Cover and refrigerate overnight (or at least 3–4 hours).

4. Serve:

Serve cold straight from the fridge or let sit for a few minutes at room temp. Top with extra berries or a dollop of full-fat yogurt if desired.

🍼 How to Serve for Different Stages

These overnight oats are creamy, naturally sweet, and easy to adapt — perfect for little ones just starting solids and toddlers learning to feed themselves.

For baby-led weaning (around 6 months+):

Allow for hands-on exploration, or offer a preloaded spoon to support independent feeding. You can mash the berries and add extra milk to thin the consistency if needed. Serve in a soft, easy-to-grip container like The Henley Cup for safe exploration.

For toddlers (12 months+):

Toddlers can practice scooping with a spoon — the thicker texture helps minimize mess while encouraging independence.

For older kids or grown-ups:

Top with a swirl of Greek yogurt, extra berries, or a sprinkle of chia seeds for a more grown-up version. It’s a great prep-ahead breakfast the whole family can enjoy.

🧠 Pro Tip:

Prep these directly in The Henley Cup for less cleanup and easier mornings. It’s the perfect toddler portion, refrigerator-safe for overnight storage, and dishwasher-friendly for a quick tidy-up later.
