An overnight oats recipe I developed for my girlfriend, which I made a little sweeter than my standard overnight oats, but still with a good dose of fiber, protein, and healthy fats to start your morning off right. For a variation without protein powder, check out my Overnight Oats with no Protein Powder. Or you can check out any of my other oatmeal recipes!

- 1 medium (110 g) Banana, overripe
- 1/4 cup (20 g) Quick oats
- 1/2 scoop (15 g) Casein protein powder, unflavored
- 1 tbsp (12 g) Chia seeds
- 1 tbsp (5 g) Cocoa powder
- Small pinch (0.15 g) Salt
- 1/4 tsp (1.25 g) Almond extract
- 1.5 tbsp (24 g) Natural peanut butter
- 1/2 tbsp (10 g) Honey
- 3 tbsp (45 g) Unsweetened vanilla almond milk

1. In a small airtight container, add your banana, and mash with the back of a fork. Add in the rest of the ingredients, and stir together with a spoon until fully combined. Store in the fridge overnight (or at least 2 hours)

2. Some ingredient swaps include:

Unsweetened applesauce (6 tbsp, 90 g) in place of mashed banana
Low Sugar Berry Jam or Strawberry Chia Jam (1 tbsp, 20 g) instead of honey (1/2 tbsp, 10 g)
Whey protein instead of casein (same amount by weight and volume, but it'll be less thick)
Optionally, you can also add 1/4 tsp (1.25 g) liquid monk fruit or 1 tbsp (15 g) mini chocolate chips if you want it slightly sweeter

3. You can turn this into baked oats by doing the following:

Double the milk to 6 tbsp (90 g)
Add 1/2 tsp (2.5 g) baking powder
Lightly grease a mini muffin pan
Bake at 350F for 14 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out nearly clean
Makes 16 mini muffins
