- 1 Tablespoon pure maple syrup (+/-) *
- ½ cup plain unsweetened plant yogurt (or vanilla yogurt) *
- 1 teaspoon vanilla *
- 1 teaspoon almond extract (+/-) *
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon *
- 1/8 teaspoon sea salt (+/-) *

Topping Ingredients:

Instructions
- Place the rolled oats and unsweetened plain plant milk into a bowl, mix well, cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Toast the almond slices. Place the almond slices into a medium-sized nonstick skillet and dry toast them over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes or until the almond slices are lightly golden. Stir them around the pan to ensure they do not burn. When lightly golden, immediately remove them from the skillet onto a plate.
- Make the frangipane. Place all the Frangipane Ingredients into a small bowl, mix well, set aside.
- Just before serving add all the Base Ingredients (including 1/2 cup of the toasted almond slices) and mix thoroughly with the Overnight Oat mixture.
- Place the some of the Overnight Oat Mixture into 2 glass jars or serving cups, add the Frangipane on top of the Overnight Oat Mixture, spread it out evenly over the bottom layer of the Overnight Oat Mixture. Sprinkle with some more toasted almonds. Then top with the remaining Overnight Oat Mixture over top of the Frangipane/Toasted Almond layer. To top, sprinkle with remaining toasted almond slices and a drizzle of maple syrup. Enjoy!
