How to make protein overnight oats recipe
I make Protein Overnight Oats every Sunday for breakfast, 5 days a week. I refrigirate five jars on Sunday and grab one every morning.
I make overnight oats with protein powder because I find it easier, and since I have kidney disease, I limit my dairy intake.
High-Protein Overnight Oats. Overnight oatmeal is a refreshing, make-ahead breakfast option with a creamy, slightly chewy texture. Overnight oats have been a go-to of mine since 2012, but I’ve modified the dish over the years to increase the protein content. My current go-to ingredient combo contains 30 grams of protein, which I achieve with protein powder. However, when I started in 2012, I used yogurt instead.
Recipe:
Ingredients:
45 grams of rolled oats
2 oz of blueberries or another fruit
1 tablespoon of peanut butter, PB2, or almond butter, etc
2 to 4 oz of water, depending on your desire.
Directions:
Mix all your ingredients in a mason jar with water.
Add Toppings: Top with sliced banana and a sprinkle of cinnamon. If you like your oats a bit sweeter, add a slight drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the jar and place it in the refrigerator overnight (or at least 4-5 hours). The oats will absorb the liquid, and the chia seeds will expand, giving you a thick, creamy consistency.
Enjoy! In the morning, give your oats a good stir, and they’re ready to eat! You can also add some extra toppings, such as berries, nuts, or nut butter, for added flavor and nutrition.
They can be warmed up if you prefer a warm temperature.
I use the same flavor for Protein Coffee and many other recipes.
Optional
- 1/2 banana, sliced (natural sweetness and potassium) yum. I am currently obsessed with blueberries.
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional, for flavor). I don't need to add cinnamon, but I am sharing some additional options for you.
- Drizzle of honey or maple syrup (optional, if you prefer a bit more sweetness) – I don’t use any of this either, but it's popular with some women.
- Fiber: Both oats and chia seeds are loaded with fiber, which helps with digestion and keeps you feeling satisfied.
