Ingredients

  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 2 Tablespoons almond butter
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup
  • ½ cup almond milk or any other plant-based milk
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional, see notes)
  • ½ banana sliced or mashed, for toppings (optional, see notes)

Instructions

  • Combine all the ingredients together. Make sure you only use half of the almond butter, as we're going to drizzle the remaining half as a topping. It's okay if the almond butter isn't completely dissolved as that will give you almond butter ‘chunks’.
    However, if you prefer smooth texture, mix the peanut butter and milk first, before adding the rest of the ingredients.
    You can do this in a large bowl, and then portioning them out later. Or do this in separate jars for an easy grab-and-go breakfast.
    ½ cup rolled oats, 1 teaspoon maple syrup, ½ cup almond milk, 1 teaspoon chia seeds, 1/2 banana, 1 Tablespoons almond butter
  • Chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours, overnight, or up to 3 days in advance.
  • Just before serving, drizzle 1 more Tablespoon of almond butter and add any desired toppings. Enjoy!
    1 Tablespoons almond butter

Notes

  • For creamier oats, add yogurt and/or mashed banana! I find that ¼ cup of either yogurt/mashed banana works best, but feel free to adjust to your liking.
  • The chia seeds will make the texture more solid and add a bit of a bite to the overnight oats, but feel free to skip or substitute with ground flax seeds.
  • If you're using banana, you can either:
    • Stir in some mashed banana with the rest of the ingredients (like what I did in the pictures)
    • Slice the banana and use it as toppings!
  • Note that it’s totally normal that the oats get a bit slimy because natural starch is released when oats are mixed with water.
