- Mix well: Stir all the ingredients thoroughly until they are well combined and evenly distributed.
- Refrigerate: Cover the bowl or jar and place it in the refrigerator overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to soak and soften.

Notes
- You can substitute key lime juice with regular lime juice if key limes are unavailable.
- Matcha powder is optional and primarily used for a natural green color and slight earthy flavor.
- For a vegan version, replace Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup according to taste.
- Prepare the oats the night before for enhanced flavor and texture.
