Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk plain or vanilla; add more if needed
  • ¼ cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt or a dairy-free option
  • ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats opt for certified gluten-free if necessary
  • 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored protein powder
  • ½ tbsp chia seeds
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ banana overripe, mashed
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ cup pumpkin puree
  • 1-2 tbsp maple syrup or honey
  • ¾ tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • ¼ - ⅓ cup apple small cubes; more for topping
  • 1-2 tbsp pecans for topping
  • 1-2 tbsp peanut butter
  • ¼ cup fresh strawberries diced
  • ¼ cup additional almond milk optional
  • ¼ peach diced
  • 1-2 tbsp shredded coconut

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a sealable mason jar or small container, pour in almond milk, Greek yogurt, rolled oats, protein powder, chia seeds, vanilla extract, mashed banana, and cinnamon. Give it a good mix.
  2. If you like your oats creamier, add a splash more of almond milk.
  3. Choose your flavor profile—pumpkin for a fall twist, apple for a refreshing crunch, or a fruity mix with diced strawberries and peach.
  4. Seal the container and pop it in the fridge overnight or for at least six hours.
Serving
  1. When it’s time to eat, stir in additional almond milk for creaminess and top it with your favorite fruits and nuts.
  2. Enjoy it cold or gently reheated in the microwave. If you’re reheating, add almond milk to keep it from drying out.
