Swiss Oatmeal

I have been trying to be adventurous in trying some new recipes the last few weeks. I have invested in some new cookbooks and "Fixate", by Autumn Calabrese has been gracing my pantry shelf, barely opened!!

So in an effort to be prepared for church this week, I thought Swiss Oatmeal sounded like the perfect "new" recipe to have prepared in advance!  Was it a family favourite? Not sure about the boys, but I personally did like it.  With that said, I made WAY too much and couldn't finish it all. I feel like the recipe in the book could easily do 2 servings as opposed to 1 as it suggests.  Please give it a shot and let me know what you think!

Ingredients:
1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (gluten-free would be preferred. I didn't use gluten free)
3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (divided use)
3/4 cup plain greek yogurt (original recipe suggests 2% reduced fat yogurt)
1/4 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped strawberries
1/4 medium banana, chopped
Slivered almonds (or 12 raw almonds, chopped)
Maple syrup or stevia (to taste; optional)

(***I feel like this recipe would serve 2 adults comfortably, but the cookbook states that this recipe serves 1. Use your judgement. :))

1.  Place oats, 1/2 cp almond milk, yogurt, extract, and cinnamon in a medium bowl; mix well and soak, covered, in the refrigerator overnight.

2.  In the morning, add remaining almond milk (1/4 cup) and mix well.

3.  Top with strawberries, chopped banana, slivered almonds and drizzle with maple syrup (if desired) over the top.
