Main Ingredients
- 1 large ripe banana, mashed
- 1 1/4 cups almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1 (5 oz) cup vanilla siggi’s yogurt (or substitute plain yogurt)
- 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter, plus more for layering and topping
For Garnish
- Banana slices
- Extra peanut butter (optional)
- Extra chia seeds and/or chopped peanuts (optional for crunch)
Instructions
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, mash the ripe banana, then add almond milk and vanilla yogurt. Stir together until the mixture is well combined and creamy, creating a smooth base for the oats.
- Add Dry Ingredients and Mix: Stir in the gluten-free rolled oats, cinnamon, chia seeds, and 2 tablespoons of peanut butter until all ingredients are evenly incorporated into the mixture.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the oats to soak and flavors to meld.
- Prepare to Serve: Once set, divide the overnight oats evenly between two 12-ounce mason jars or serving containers. For added texture and layers, you can place extra peanut butter and banana slices in the middle layers if desired.
- Garnish and Enjoy: Top each serving with an additional tablespoon of peanut butter, a few extra banana slices, and if preferred, sprinkle extra chia seeds or chopped peanuts on top for extra crunch. Serve cold and enjoy a healthy, high-protein breakfast.
