Ingredients
1/2 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned)
3/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
2–3 tablespoons peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1–2 teaspoons maple syrup or honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Instructions
1. Combine dry ingredients (oats, chia seeds, salt) in a jar or container with a lid.
2. Add wet ingredients (milk, peanut butter, maple syrup/honey, vanilla extract).
3. Mix well until fully combined and peanut butter is incorporated.
4. Seal the container and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4-6 hours.
5. Stir before serving and add desired toppings.
Notes
Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture (avoid instant oats).
Chia seeds are essential for thickening.
Adjust milk for desired consistency (less for thicker, more for thinner).
Add fresh toppings like fruit, nuts, or chocolate chips just before serving.
Store in airtight container in refrigerator for 3-5 days.
Can be eaten cold or warmed in microwave for 30-60 seconds.
