Description

A delicious and nutritious overnight oats recipe featuring banana, chia seeds, and Greek yogurt.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ a ripe banana, mashed
  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • ½ Tbsp chia seeds
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup almond milk, unsweetened
  • ⅓ cup Greek yogurt, plain or vanilla
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ Tbsp honey
  • pinch sea salt

Instructions

  1. On a plate or small bowl, mash half a banana with a fork.
  2. In a mason jar or other small container, mix the rolled oats, cinnamon, salt, and chia seeds. Then add the wet ingredients including the mashed banana, vanilla extract, honey, milk, and yogurt. Give it a good stir until everything is well combined.
  3. Cover and refrigerate overnight or at least for 4 hours to let the oats soak.
  4. When ready to serve, add your favorite toppings.
  5. Optional: top with caramelized banana slices by adding a bit of olive oil to a skillet with the additional sliced banana, a little cinnamon, and a squeeze of honey until warmed.

  • For a sweeter oat, adjust honey to taste.
  • Feel free to add nuts or seeds as toppings for added crunch.
