Ingredients:

½ cup old fashioned rolled oats
½ cup milk (any milk will work, but I like unsweetened almond milk)

1-2 teaspoons maple syrup or honey (or your preferred sweetener)
1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

How to cook:

Basic Overnight Oats
Add oats, milk, yogurt, maple syrup, chia seeds, vanilla and sea salt into a jar or storage container with a lid. Stir ingredients together. Place in the fridge overnight. If you're in a rush you can shorten the soak time to 2-4 hours.
The next morning (or when ready to eat), remove lid and give oats a big stir. If they seem too thick you can add a little more milk to loosen the mixture. Top with your favorite toppings and enjoy. You can eat the oats straight from the jar or pour into a bowl for serving.
Overnight oats should last up to 5 days in the fridge in a sealed airtight container.
Chocolate Chip Overnight Oats
Stir 1 Tablespoon of chocolate chips into the overnight oat mixture when prepping and then sprinkle oats with remaining chocolate chips to serve.
Peanut Butter Overnight Oats
Stir 1/2 Tablespoon of peanut butter into the overnight oat mixture when prepping and then drizzle oats with remaining peanut butter to serve.
Berry Overnight Oats
Stir 2 Tablespoons of berries into the overnight oat mixture when prepping and then top oats with remaining berries to serve.

How to cook:

Prep oats: Combine all ingredients except the toppings in a small container.
Soak: Cover container with a lid and place in the fridge overnight (or at least 1-2 hours).
Stir: Bring out of the fridge in the morning and stir. You'll notice that the protein powder, oats and chia seeds soak up a lot of the liquid so you may want to add a little more almond milk or water before serving.
Add toppings and enjoy: Top with toppings of your choice and enjoy. I love berries and sliced almonds or almond butter.
