Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (90g)
  • 1 Tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • 1 Tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 Tablespoons peanut butter powder

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (300g)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Toppings

  • Fresh berries
  • Sliced bananas
  • Cacao nibs
  • Unsweetened flaked coconut

Instructions

  1. Mix dry ingredients: In a bowl, combine the rolled oats, chia seeds, chocolate protein powder, unsweetened cocoa powder, and peanut butter powder. Stir thoroughly to ensure an even mix.
  2. Add wet ingredients: Pour in the maple syrup, unsweetened almond milk, and vanilla extract. Stir the mixture well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
  3. Portion and refrigerate: Divide the mixture between two 8 oz containers or half-pint mason jars with lids. Seal and refrigerate overnight, or for up to five days to allow the oats to soften and flavors to meld.
  4. Serve and garnish: Enjoy the overnight oats plain or topped with fresh berries, sliced bananas, cacao nibs, and unsweetened flaked coconut for added texture and flavor.

Notes

  • For a vegan version, ensure the protein powder is plant-based and maple syrup is used as the sweetener.
  • Chilling the oats for at least 6 hours is crucial for proper soaking and texture.
  • Peanut butter powder adds nutty flavor with less fat than regular peanut butter.
  • This recipe can be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days, making it great for meal prep.
  • To adjust sweetness, add more or less maple syrup according to taste.
