Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)

1 scoop chocolate protein powder

2 tablespoons natural peanut butter (or almond butter)

1 tablespoon chia seeds

1 banana, sliced

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, adjust for sweetness)

A pinch of salt

Toppings: sliced almonds, cacao nibs, and fresh berries

Instructions
 

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, chocolate protein powder, chia seeds, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to ensure even distribution of ingredients.

    Add Liquid Ingredients: Slowly pour in the almond milk and add the natural peanut butter. Whisk together until the peanut butter is fully incorporated into the mixture.

      Sweeten (Optional): If you prefer a sweeter taste, add the honey or maple syrup and mix until smooth.

        Incorporate Fruit: Gently fold in the sliced banana, ensuring it’s evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

          Store for the Night: Divide the mixture into 2 or 3 airtight containers (or jars), cover, and refrigerate overnight (or at least 4 hours).

            Serve and Garnish: In the morning, give the oats a good stir. Top with sliced almonds, cacao nibs, and fresh berries for an added crunch and burst of flavor. Enjoy it cold or warm it slightly in the microwave if you prefer a cozy bowl.
