Description

This protein overnight oats recipe blends oats, protein powder, chia seeds, Greek yogurt, and almond milk for a creamy, high-protein breakfast.


Ingredients

Scale

1/2 cup rolled oats
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1 scoop protein powder (vanilla or chocolate)
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
1/3 cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Optional toppings: sliced banana, peanut butter, chocolate chips, berries


Instructions

Add rolled oats, chia seeds, and protein powder to a mason jar or sealable container.
Pour in almond milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup or honey, vanilla extract, and salt.
Mix well until fully combined and no clumps remain.
Seal and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
In the morning, stir again and top with desired toppings.
Serve cold or warm in the microwave for 30–60 seconds if preferred.

Notes

Rolled oats work best; avoid quick or steel-cut oats. For a thicker texture, reduce the milk slightly. For vegan-friendly oats, use plant-based yogurt and protein powder. Make multiple jars in advance for weekly meal prep.
