    These Protein Overnight Oats are super simple to make and make for a great breakfast or snack! The creamy nut butter combined with the ripened banana is quite delicious. This protein loaded breakfast makes for a great meal on the go!

    What Makes These Protein Overnight Oats So Good?

    • I got into overnight oats during my bodybuilding days. While that is a thing of the past, I am still loving my oats for so many reasons! 
    • First off, they are such a time saver for the morning when you are on the go! I love prepping my oats at the start of the week and then eating them all week long.
    • Secondly, they are so delicious. I love the combination of the banana and the nut butter, so yummy!
    • Third, there is so much hidden protein between the protein powder and the chia seeds.

    What You Need To Make Overnight Oats With Protein Powder:

    • Oats-I prefer gluten free sprouted oats because they are much easier to digest. 
    • Banana-This adds some natural sweetness.
    • Almond milk-I like to eat dairy free as much as possible so this is my go to milk of choice, but if you tolerate milk you can use regular milk.
    • Protein powder-This is the brand I use because there are not any hidden funky ingredients. You can also use collagen peptides if you want protein powder without whey. 
    • Chia seeds-For extra protein. 
    • Almond butter-I am obsessed with the banana and nut butter combination.

    How To Make High Protein Overnight Oats:

    • First, place the banana in a bowl and mash it with a fork or a whisk.
    • Secondly, add all of the remaining ingredients in and whisk until smooth. 
    • Place the mixture into a mason jar and place in the fridge for at least 1 hour. I love making these oats before bed and having them set overnight.

    What Should I Serve Them With?

    • I love eating my oats with fresh berries or bananas. These overnight oat cups are always great for brunches too. I love to serve them with some of my favorite other brunch items: Spinach Mushroom Frittata, Dairy Free Hollandaise Sauce, and my Protein Pancakes. 

    How Long Do Thick Overnight Oats Last?

    • I suggest keeping the oats in the fridge for up to 5 days!

    Should I Eat Them Cold?

    • I prefer to eat mine cold but you can always heat them up in the microwave if you prefer yours warm. 

    Can I Add Chocolate?

    • Absolutely! I would add 1 tbsp of cacao power to start with the mixture.
