Oats are often hailed as a superfood, and for good reason. They are a whole grain that’s rich in fiber, particularly beta-glucan, which has been linked to numerous health benefits. The fiber content in oats not only aids in maintaining digestive health but also plays a significant role in regulating blood sugar levels. By stabilizing glucose levels, oats help prevent the spikes and crashes that can lead to mid-morning energy slumps.

Ingredients
  

1/2 cup rolled oats

1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or preferred milk)

1 scoop vanilla protein powder (optional, but recommended)

1 tablespoon chia seeds

1 tablespoon Greek yogurt (for extra creaminess)

1 tablespoon almond butter (or nut butter of choice)

1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey (optional, for sweetness)

1/2 banana, sliced

A handful of mixed berries (blueberries, strawberries, etc.)

Pinch of salt

Toppings: sliced almonds, coconut flakes, or extra fruit

Instructions
 

In a medium bowl or jar, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, protein powder, chia seeds, and a pinch of salt. Stir well until all the ingredients are thoroughly mixed.

    Add the Greek yogurt and almond butter to the oat mixture. Stir until fully combined, ensuring the nut butter is evenly distributed.

      If you enjoy a sweeter taste, stir in maple syrup or honey at this stage.

        Gently fold in the sliced banana and mixed berries into the mixture, ensuring even distribution.

          Cover the bowl or jar with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.

            In the morning, give the mixture a good stir. If the oats are too thick for your preference, add a splash more milk to reach your desired consistency.

              Serve your overnight oats in bowls or jars, and garnish with your choice of toppings like sliced almonds, coconut flakes, or additional fresh fruit.
