Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (regular or gluten-free)
  • 1/2 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon protein powder
  • Dash of sea salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1/2 – 1 tablespoon natural creamy peanut butter (or any other nut or seed butter)
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 – 3 teaspoons pure maple syrup

Topping

  • 1/2 small banana, sliced

Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl or container, combine the rolled oats, chia seeds, protein powder, sea salt, and pure maple syrup. Stir well to evenly distribute all the dry components.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Add the unsweetened almond milk, natural creamy peanut butter, and pure vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Stir thoroughly until all the ingredients are well incorporated and form a smooth, creamy consistency.
  3. Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the mixture and place it in the refrigerator. Let it chill overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
