Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 2 hours
Course Breakfast
Servings 4 jars

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup Oats
  • ¼ cup Chia Seeds
  • 1 scoop Protein Powder (I use Vanilla flavour)
  • Pinch Cinnamon
  • Pinch Salt
  • 1 cup Coconut Milk (any milk is alright)
  • ½ cup Water
  • 2 tbsp Nut Butter
  • 2 tbsp Maple Syrup
  • Toppings: Fruits of choice, cacao nibs

Instructions
 

  • Place oats in a large bowl followed by the chia seeds. Add in protein of choice, cinnamon and salt. Mix altogether until everything looks well combined.
  • In the same bowl, add coconut milk and water and stir.
  • Again in the same bowl, add the nut butter and maple syrup. The nut butter can be difficult at first to combine, but mashing it up can help separate it to mix better.
  • Get 4 mason jars ready and add the mixture to each mason jar. Use a canning funnel if available to prevent mess on the counter. 
  • Add on your favourite toppings from the list above or your own. I like to use bananas, blueberries and cacao nibs.
  • Store in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight and enjoy on the go or at home.
