Equipment

  • 1 food safe container or 2 mason jars

Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats (certified gluten free if needed)
  • 1 scoop protein powder of choice
  • 2 tbsp. chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp. pure maple syrup
  • 1 ¾ cups milk (see notes)

Optional toppings

  • walnuts, pecans, sliced almonds
  • fresh fruit
  • dried coconut flakes
  • cacao nibs
  • nut butter

Instructions

  • In a medium sized food safe container, such as a Pyrex, add all ingredients and stir until combined. Alternatively, you can also divide ingredients between 2 mason jars.
  • Cover and place in fridge overnight.
  • Divide between two bowls (or save half for the next day) and add desired toppings. You can also add more maple syrup and milk if desired.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can use any protein powder that you like. I typically use Truvani chocolate protein powder. 
  • You can use regular milk or any dairy-free milk. If using dairy-free, make sure it's unsweetened.  Protein content will be slightly less if using dairy-free milk. 
  • Use mason jars to make individual serving sizes so you have an easy grab and go breakfast in the morning.
  • Play around with your favorite toppings. Nuts, any fresh fruit, nut butters, dried coconut, and/or cacao nibs are all great options. 
  • Overnight oats will stay good in the fridge for 3-4 days.
