Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 1/2 cups milk (or almond milk)
  • 3/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 1/2 scoops vanilla protein powder
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup blueberries

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a jar, mix the rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, vanilla protein powder, honey (or maple syrup), and cinnamon thoroughly to ensure even distribution of all ingredients.
  2. Refrigerate Overnight: Stir the mixture well, cover the jar tightly, and place it in the refrigerator overnight. This allows the oats and chia seeds to soften and absorb the liquids, creating a creamy texture.
  3. Add Toppings and Serve: The next morning, remove the jar from the fridge, top the oats with fresh blueberries for a burst of natural sweetness and freshness, and enjoy your high-protein breakfast.

  • This recipe is easily customizable by swapping blueberries with other fruits like strawberries, raspberries, or bananas.
  • Ensure to use a good quality vanilla protein powder for the best flavor.
