These Overnight oats with Protein Powder are rich, creamy, and deeply chocolate (with a vanilla option in the recipe notes). Packed with protein and fiber for a balanced breakfast to start your day!
In a wide-mouth pint-sized mason jar or other storage container, add all of the ingredients.
Seal the lid on the container, then stir (or shake) until all the ingredients are evenly combined. Let overnight oats sit for 5 minutes, then shake again (this step is KEY for the oats and seeds not clumping together and settling on the bottom).
Place in the fridge overnight, or at least 4 hours.
In the morning, give your oats a quick stir, add any desired toppings, and enjoy!
