In this recipe I used almond, raisins and coconut. You can use any dry fruits of your choice. If you want to make it dairy free use coconut milk or any plant based milk instead of yogurt and milk. Oats should be soaked in milk properly. You can also use ripe banana, mango or any chopped fruit while soaking oats.

Dates and raisins will give enough sweetness but you can use honey, jaggery, stevia or any sweetener if you want. Or simply increase the amount of dates if you want your overnight oats more sweet.

For flavour I have used cardamom and cinnamon. If you don’t like the aroma of cardamom, then skip it and use only cinnamon powder.
