Step-by-Step Instructions for Baklava Overnight Oats
  1. Prepare the Nut Topping: Finely chop raw pistachios and walnuts, then mix them with almond flour, salt, lime zest, and optional cinnamon in a medium bowl. Drizzle in maple syrup and stir until the mixture becomes sticky and well-combined. Set aside.
  2. Mix Oats: In a small saucepan, heat nondairy milk over medium heat until steamy, about 2-3 minutes. In a large bowl, combine oats, chia seeds, vanilla extract, maple syrup, non-dairy yogurt, and heated milk. Stir well until everything is fully blended and creamy.
  3. Combine Mixtures: Gently fold one-third of the nut topping into the oat mixture. Allow this mixture to rest for 5-10 minutes; this lets the chia seeds absorb the liquid and thicken the oats beautifully.
  4. Prep & Store: Spoon the oat mixture into individual jars or bowls, layer remaining nut topping generously on top. Add fruits if desired. Seal tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to four days.
  5. Optional Crisp: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Brush layers of filo dough with oil, sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar, and bake for about 10 minutes until golden and crispy. Crumble this over your Baklava Overnight Oats when serving.
