Servings 1
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup rolled oats
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (~30g) see notes
- 1/4 cup plain full-fat greek yogurt
- 2/3 cup unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
- Zest and juice from 1/2 medium lemon
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch sea salt
- 1/4 cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Add everything but the blueberries to a bowl or glass jar and stir until well combined. Cover and set in the fridge for at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight.
- In the morning, stir and add more milk if needed to reach desired consistency. Top with blueberries and any other toppings like extra yogurt, almond butter or maple syrup.
Notes
I used a plant-based protein powder for this recipe. If using whey protein powder, you will need to use less liquid as whey protein absorbs less liquid than plant-based protein powders. I found that 1/3 cup milk worked well, but if you like your overnights to be thicker, use 1/4 cup and add additional liquid in the morning as needed.
Feel free to add a little maple syrup if these overnight oats aren't sweet enough for your taste.
