Instructions
Creating High-Protein Overnight Oats is effortless when following these simple steps:
1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, protein powder, chia seeds, and a pinch of salt.
2. Add Wet Ingredients: Add milk (or non-dairy milk), Greek yogurt, maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
3. Mix Well: Make sure there are no dry oats remaining. Everything should be well-coated and moist.
4. Transfer to Jar/Container: Divide the mixture evenly into airtight jars or containers, leaving a bit of room for toppings.
5. Add Fruits and Nuts: Layer your favorite fruits and nuts on top. You can either mix them in or keep them as a topping for added crunch.
6. Cover and Refrigerate: Seal the jars and place them in the refrigerator. Let them chill for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
7. Enjoy: The next morning, give the oats a quick stir. Add a splash of milk if you prefer a thinner consistency. Top with additional fruits or nuts if desired.
