Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats (gluten-free if needed)
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 2 tbsp mini chocolate chips
  • 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored protein powder
  • 1 pinch kosher salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp peanut butter or almond butter
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup milk (almond, cashew, or dairy)

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a jar or bowl, mix the rolled oats, chia seeds, protein powder, kosher salt, and mini chocolate chips thoroughly to ensure even distribution of flavors and textures.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the milk of your choice, followed by the maple syrup, nut butter, and vanilla extract. Stir the mixture well until everything is smoothly blended and the nut butter is evenly incorporated.
  3. Refrigerate: Cover the jar or bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. Allow the oats to soak and thicken for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, until they become creamy and well-set.
  4. Serve: Before serving, stir the oats again to blend any settled ingredients. Optionally, add extra chocolate chips or a dollop of nut butter on top for added indulgence. Serve chilled or warm briefly in the microwave if preferred.

Notes

  • Use gluten-free oats if you need the recipe to be gluten-free.
  • Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup according to taste.
  • You can swap peanut butter for almond butter or any nut butter of your choice.
  • For a vegan version, use plant-based protein powder and non-dairy milk.
  • Store leftover oats in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Microwaving the oats briefly will warm them without losing the creamy texture.
