Ingredients
- ½ cup rolled oats old fashioned
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- 1 Tablespoon protein powder I used Nuzest protein powder, vanilla
- ½-1 teaspoon lemon zest
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt full fat, plain, or vegan yogurt
- ¾ cup non-dairy milk I used almond milk
- pinch of salt
- ½ teaspoon maple syrup
- ¼ cup blueberries plus more for topping
- granola toppings of choice
- blueberries
- nut butter
Instructions
- Add oats, milk, yogurt, protein powder, maple syrup, chia seeds, blueberries, lemon zest and sea salt into a jar or storage container with a lid. Stir ingredients together.
- Place in the fridge overnight. If you're in a rush you can shorten the soak time to 2-4 hours.
- The next morning (or when ready to eat), remove lid and give oats a big stir. If they seem too thick you can add a little more milk to loosen the mixture. Top with your favorite toppings and enjoy. You can eat the oats straight from the jar or pour into a bowl for serving.
- Overnight oats should last up to 5 days in the fridge in a sealed airtight container.

Notes
