Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

1 cup almond milk (or your preferred milk)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1 cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt for a vegan option)

1/2 cup fruit jam (strawberry, raspberry, or your favorite flavor)

Pinch of salt

Fresh fruits for topping (optional: sliced bananas, berries, chopped nuts)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Oat Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats with almond milk, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Use a spatula or a wooden spoon to mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well incorporated and form a cohesive mixture.

    Shape Oat Coins: Using your hands or a cookie scoop, form the oat mixture into small discs, about 2 inches in diameter. Place these discs on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced evenly. Aim for a thickness of about 1/4 inch to ensure even freezing.

      Chill the Oat Coins: Transfer the baking sheet to the refrigerator and let it chill for 30 minutes. This step will help the oat coins firm up, making them easier to handle.

        Prepare the Yogurt Layer: While the oat coins are chilling, take another bowl to mix the Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup to taste. If you want an extra flavor kick, mix in a dash more cinnamon for added warmth.

          Assemble the Coins: After the oat coins have firmed up, remove them from the refrigerator. Take a knife or small spatula to spread a generous layer of fruit jam over half of the oat coins. Spoon the sweetened Greek yogurt on top of the jam. Finally, place an un-topped oat coin on top of each of these layered coins to create delightful sandwiches.

            Freeze: Return the assembled oat coins to the baking sheet and place them in the freezer for at least 2-3 hours, or until they are completely frozen solid.

              Serve: Once frozen, gently remove the coins from the parchment paper. Enjoy them right away as a refreshing snack or a delicious breakfast treat. For an extra pop of flavor and texture, consider topping them with fresh sliced fruits or a sprinkle of chopped nuts.

                  - Presentation Tips: Serve the coins on a colorful platter, stacking them slightly for a delightful visual. Garnish with additional fresh fruits or a drizzle of honey for an inviting touch.
