Equipment

4 Weck Tulip Jars

Ingredients

2 cups gluten free oats
¼ cup chia seeds
1 cup non-fat Greek yogurt for dairy free: sub dairy free yogurt of choice, or replace with an extra cup of almond milk
1 cup almond milk
2 ripe bananas mashed
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tbsp maple syrup
2 scoops vanilla protein powder I like Be Well By Kelly's protein powder!

Instructions

Mash your bananas and add all over the ingredients to a bowl except for the oats.
Mix well until relatively smooth and combined.
Add in the oats and stir until combined. Divide the mixture between four 7-oz jars (these are my favorite), cover, and store in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes. For best results, store overnight!

Notes

Double Batch: If you want to make more protein overnight oats with banana for yourself or your family, simply click "print" on the recipe below and increase the servings. The ingredient quantities will automatically adjust!

Toppings: Feel free to add blueberries, strawberries, peanut butter, or almond butter to these!

Jars: I use Weck Tulip jars, but feel free to use whatever containers you have on hand. Just be mindful of the serving size if you don't have the same volume containers as I am using.

Variations: You can really adjust these protein overnight oats to your preference. Use a different flavor protein powder (like chocolate or strawberry) and try mashing up different fruits like strawberries or blueberries. You can also add a dollop of peanut butter to the mixture if you prefer. Or, use any of these as toppings. This recipe is versatile and accommodating to all kinds of flavor preferences!
