Dried Cherry Overnight Oats

Make mornings easier with this simple, hearty breakfast. Overnight oats can be prepared the night before, or they can be made as a larger batch to prep for the week ahead, allowing for individual grab-and-go servings. These convenient jars are packed with flavor thanks to the addition of dried cherries and a touch of almond extract. The sweetness can be adjusted, and the toppings can be customized for the perfect breakfast to suit your needs.
