Descriptions

These High Protein Overnight Oats are one of the easiest make-ahead breakfasts you can prepare. The combination of oats, Greek yogurt, milk, chia seeds, and protein powder creates a creamy texture while adding plenty of protein to keep you satisfied.

Prep them in just a few minutes before bed and grab them straight from the refrigerator in the morning.

Directions

Step 1

Add the rolled oats, Greek yogurt, protein powder, chia seeds, cinnamon, and salt to a mason jar or airtight container.

Step 2

Pour in the milk and add the maple syrup and vanilla extract.

Step 3

Stir everything together until the protein powder is fully incorporated and there are no dry pockets.

Step 4

Cover the container and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.

Step 5

In the morning, stir the oats well. If they are too thick, add a splash of milk until you reach your preferred consistency.

Step 6

Add your favorite toppings, such as berries, banana, peanut butter, or nuts.

Step 7

Serve chilled and enjoy.

Note's

  • Use old-fashioned rolled oats for the best texture.
  • For a thicker consistency, add an extra tablespoon of Greek yogurt.
  • If the oats become too thick overnight, simply mix in a little milk before serving.
  • You can prepare several jars at once for easy weekday breakfasts.
  • For a sweeter bowl, add a little extra maple syrup or use a naturally sweetened protein powder.
  • Keep refrigerated and enjoy within 3–4 days.
