In a bowl or mason jar, combine 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats, 1 tablespoon chia seeds, 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup milk of choice, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 tablespoons raisins, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 2 tablespoons maple syrup.
Stir well to combine all ingredients, ensuring that the oats are evenly coated with the mixture and the chia seeds are fully incorporated.
Cover the bowl or mason jar with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight to allow the oats to soak and absorb the liquid.
In the morning, stir the oats again to combine any ingredients that may have settled overnight fully.
If the oats are too thick for your preference, add more milk and stir until the desired consistency is reached.
Enjoy immediately, or top with additional fruit, nuts, or seeds if desired.
