Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup milk (120g) (I use almond) use dairy milk for higher protein
  • 1/2 cup old fashioned oats (40g)
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree (60g)
  • 1/4 cup vanilla protein powder (30g)
  • 1.5 tsp pure maple syrup or to taste
  • 1 tsp chia seeds
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract optional
  • chopped nuts optional for topping (adds a nice texture)
  • reddi whip & pumpkin pie spice optional, a little goes a long way!

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. To a mason jar, meal prep container or bowl, add all the ingredients and mix very well until combined. Taste and add anything extra to your preference (It will pretty much taste the same now as it does when its ready to eat, will just be thicker and creamier after its had time to sit).
  2. Cover with a lid or saran wrap and place in the fridge for a minimum of 2 hours. For best, creamiest results, let sit for at least 8 hours. 
  3. Prep multiple jars at a time as desired. Overnight oats stay fresh in the fridge for 4-5 days.

Notes

  • To store: store overnight oats in an air tight container in the fridge. They will stay fresh for 4-5 days.*
  • *Quick vs. Old fashioned Oats: Either works and will yield different textures. The quick oats will blend more, making it more creamy but a lot of the texture will be lost that way. The old fashioned will be more hearty and thick and will hold up longer in the fridge. 
  • *Protein powder: A pumpkin pie flavor (like PEScience's seasonal pumpkin) is absolutely freaking delicious in this (!!) But a vanilla or a cinnamon flavored protein powder also work really well. If using vanilla or cinnamon, try adding in a few dashes of pumpkin pie spice for the best pumpkin spice flavor!
