Overnight Oats
This is my almost-every-morning go-to. I batch about 4 jars at a time (any longer than about 4–5 days and it starts to go bad) and all I have to do in the morning is grab one, add edamame puffs, and I'm set.
One serving of overnight oats shown with edamame puffs, which are a HIGHLY RECOMMENDED addition.
Important note!! Although I have added/subtracted a few ingredients, this original recipe is not my own. 100% credit goes to YouTubers Need Never Get Old for the base recipe; I only took it and ran with it. You can see their overnight oats video here.
Nutrition (per serving)
Makes about 1 pint jar (1 serving).
Nutritional profile is calculated using exactly the brands shown in the ingredients list. Your values may vary if you use a different type of oats or protein powder.
Ingredients
- ½ cup One Degree Organics sprouted rolled oats*
- 1 tablespoon ground flax
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 2 scoops SunWarrior Active Protein powder in Chocolate**
- 1 cup West Life soy milk
- ¼ cup water
- 10–15 drops stevia (optional, if you want it sweeter)
*Of course, you can use any rolled oats, but sprouted oats have more protein.
**Other brands may have fewer calories and less protein; and of course, you can switch up flavors to your liking.
Directions
- Add all ingredients to a 1 pint mason jar and stir carefully.
- Refrigerate overnight and serve in the morning.
Zhuzh It Up
Want to make it your own? Try adding:
- Fruit(s) of choice
- Nut butter (you can add powdered PB Fit when making it, but you might need to add a bit more water)
- Cacao nibs
- Nuts/seeds
- Edamame puffs (strongly suggested—adds 20g protein for only 100 more calories)
- Vegan yogurt
- Vegan whipped cream, if added sugar isn't a concern
(These are best added on top, just before serving.)
Keep in mind that any additions will alter the nutritional profile, so plan accordingly.
