Overnight Oats with Protein Powder

4 servings
A healthy plant-based breakfast with oats, chia seeds, and protein powder.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cup Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats

    note 1

  • 2 tablespoons Chia Seeds
  • 2 scoops Protein Powder)

    we used Macro Mike Vanilla protein powder (1 scoop about 40g

  • 2 cups Almond Milk
  • 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon

Directions

  1. 1

    In a large mixing bowl, add old-fashioned rolled oats, chia seeds, protein powder, and cinnamon. Stir to distribute evenly.

  2. 2

    Stir in almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Seal the bowl with a lid, refrigerate overnight. I recommend stirring the mixture 1 hour after you pop it in the fridge. This prevents the chia seeds from sinking to the bottom of the bowl.

  3. 3

    The next day, serve in small serving jars with peanut butter, dairy-free yogurt, fresh berries, and nuts.
