Steps
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 large egg, 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, and 1/2 cup sugar. Cook over low heat, whisking constantly for about 5 minutes, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Remove from heat, stir in 4 tablespoons of butter until melted, and let it cool completely before using.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine 1 cup rolled oats, 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons chia seeds, 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir well until all ingredients are fully combined, creating a creamy base.
- Grab a mason jar or any airtight container. Spoon half of the oats mixture into the bottom, followed by a generous layer of the prepared lemon curd. Then, top with the remaining oats mixture.
- Seal the mason jar tightly and place it in the refrigerator. Allow the Lemon Curd Overnight Oats to chill for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight.
- When ready to enjoy, take them out of the fridge. Top with granola, extra lemon zest, and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup. Mix and savor!

Notes
