3-Minute Meal Prep Breakfast: Overnight Oats

Overnight oats are my go-to breakfast, because they are:

1. Easy to prepare before bed

2. Tasty enough to eat every morning

3. Super customizable and creamy

I like making 2 batches on Sunday night, then bringing both jars to work on Monday morning. My absolute favorite way to eat them is with powdered peanut butter, chocolate chips, and a fresh banana sliced in. It tastes like dessert, and keeps me full and satiated until lunch. Try these oats, you won’t regret it!

I prefer to eat my oats out of a mason jar like these, but normal food storage containers stack better in the fridge. It’s all personal preference, so don’t get hung up on the small stuff.

Overnight Oats

Ingredients

• 1 cup quick cooking oats

• 2 Tbsp nut butter (I use powdered peanut butter because I have it, and it’s easy to blend and scoop)

• 1-2 tsp. natural maple syrup

• Optional: 1-2 Tbsp. dark chocolate

Directions

1. Add all ingredients to a jar or bowl and mix until combined.

2. Place in fridge overnight and enjoy cold in the morning.
