Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats

Instructions

  • In a bowl or mason jar, combine the oats, almond milk, Greek yogurt, protein powder, chia seeds, almond butter, cinnamon, and vanilla extract.
  • Stir everything together until well combined, making sure the protein powder is fully dissolved.
  • If you like a bit of sweetness, add honey or maple syrup to taste.
  • Cover the bowl or mason jar and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
  • In the morning, give it a quick stir, and top with fresh berries, sliced almonds, or your favorite toppings.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes
