Ingredients
  

  • Rolled Oats: ½ Cup Old-fashioned oats work best for texture
  • Milk: 1 Cup You can use Dairy milk, Almond milk, or Coconut milk
  • Dates: 3–4 Soft dates Pitted and finely chopped
  • Chia Seeds: 1 tsp Optional, for extra fiber and omega-3
  • Cinnamon Powder: A pinch For flavor and metabolism boost
  • Honey/Maple Syrup: 1 tsp Optional, as dates provide natural sweetness

  1. Combine: In a clean glass jar or a bowl, add the rolled oats and chia seeds.
  2. Sweeten: Add the chopped dates and a pinch of cinnamon powder.

  4. Seal & Chill: Close the lid of the jar or cover the bowl with a lid/plastic wrap.

Notes

Why This Works for Weight Loss?

  • High Fiber: Oats and dates keep you feeling full for a longer duration, preventing mid-day cravings.
  • No Added Sugar: The natural sweetness comes from the dates, making it a "refined sugar-free" breakfast.
  • Sustained Energy: Provides a slow release of energy, which is crucial during fasting (Ramadan).
