Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt plain, full-fat
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp honey optional
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • fresh berries for topping

Equipment

  • Mason jar or bowl
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Mixing spoon
  • Tight-sealing lid

Method
 

  1. In a mason jar or bowl, mix rolled oats, Greek yogurt, protein powder, almond milk, chia seeds, and cinnamon.
  2. Mix dry ingredients first to prevent clumping from the protein powder.
  3. Stir thoroughly—about 40 strokes—to eliminate any powder streaks.
  4. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to ensure even texture.
  5. Cover and refrigerate overnight or for at least 6 hours.
  6. Before serving, top with fresh berries and drizzle with honey if desired.
  7. Enjoy chilled or warm briefly in the microwave with a splash of almond milk.

Notes

Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creaminess. Stir vigorously to avoid protein powder clumps. Add nut butter for extra richness. Best enjoyed within 3 days.
