Ingredients
1/2 cup rolled oats
3/4 cup milk of choice
1/3 cup Greek yogurt
1 scoop protein powder
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1 tablespoon peanut butter
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons chocolate chips
1 pinch salt
Instructions
1. In a jar or bowl, mix rolled oats, chia seeds, protein powder, and salt until evenly combined.
2. Add milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract, then stir thoroughly until smooth.
3. Mix in the peanut butter, either fully incorporating it or leaving a swirl for texture.
4. Fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the mixture.
5. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
6. Stir before serving and adjust consistency with a splash of milk if needed.
7. Add extra toppings if desired and enjoy.
Notes
Use rolled oats for the best texture; quick oats will be softer and steel-cut oats won’t soften properly overnight.
Adjust sweetness after chilling since flavors develop more over time.
For extra creaminess, add a splash of milk right before serving.
