Peanut Butter Overnight Oats

INGREDIENTS 

• 1/2 cup unsweetened plain almond milk or choice 
• 3/4 Tbsp chia seeds
• 2 teaspoons natural salted peanut butter or almond butter (creamy or crunchy)
• 1 teaspoon honey or stevia 
• 1/2 cup  gluten-free rolled oats

TOPPINGS (optional)

• Banana
• Strawberries
• Raspberries 
• Dates
• Chia seeds
• Walnuts
• Almonds 

DIRECTIONS

1. To a mason jar or small bowl, add almond milk, chia seeds, peanut butter, and honey (or other sweetener) and stir with a spoon to combine. The peanut butter doesn't need to be completely mixed with the almond milk (doing so leaves swirls of peanut butter to enjoy the next day).
2. Add oats and stir a few more times. Then press down with a spoon to ensure all oats have been moistened and are immersed in almond milk.
3. Cover securely with a lid or plastic wrap and set in the refrigerator overnight (or for at least 6 hours).
4. The next day, open and enjoy as is or garnish with desired toppings (see options above).
5. Overnight oats will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, though best within the first 12-24 hours.

These oats would make the perfect make-ahead breakfast or snack, especially for those of you with hectic mornings.

I also think it would make the perfect meal to enjoy after an intense workout – 15 grams of protein!

Enjoy!!
