Ingredients
- ½ cup rolled oats old fashioned
- ¾ cup eggnog
- ½ coop protein powder optional, vanilla
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- cinnamon for sprinkling
- nutmeg for topping, freshly grated
- 1-2 Tablespoons pomegranate arils
Instructions
- Combine oats, eggnog, protein powder (if using), chia seeds and cinnamon in small container and seal with a lid.
- Place in the fridge overnight.
- Bring out of the fridge in the morning and stir. You'll notice that the oats and protein powder soak up a lot of the liquid so you may want to add a little more eggnog or milk before serving. Top oats with pomegranate arils and a sprinkle of freshly grated nutmeg and enjoy.

Notes
- eggnog – for the eggnog, you can use whatever type of eggnog you have on hand. I've made it with homemade dairy-free eggnog and store-bought vegan coconut milk eggnog.
- dairy-free eggnog
- vanilla protein powder – I like adding vanilla protein powder for a little extra protein. If you don't do protein powder you can leave this out or add in 1/4 cup yogurt for extra protein.
- milk – no eggnog? No problem. Just use 3/4 cup of almond milk and add in 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon of freshly ground nutmeg and 1/4 teaspoon rum extract (optional).
