Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1 scoop of your favorite protein powder
  • A pinch of fine kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons almond or peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups milk of choice

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, add the rolled oats, chia seeds, mini chocolate chips, protein powder, and a pinch of kosher salt. Stir everything together thoroughly to evenly distribute the ingredients.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Stir in the almond or peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and your choice of milk into the oat mixture. Mix well until all components are fully incorporated and the mixture looks creamy.
  3. Portion and Refrigerate: Divide the combined oat mixture evenly among 4 jars or containers. Secure the lids and place them in the refrigerator overnight to allow the oats and chia seeds to soak and soften, creating a creamy texture.

Notes

  • Store leftovers refrigerated in airtight containers for up to four to five days to maintain freshness.
  • For best texture, avoid using quick oats or steel cut oats as they do not absorb liquid the same way as rolled oats.
  • To make this recipe vegan, use dairy-free chocolate chips and plant-based milk alternatives like almond, soy, or oat milk.
