Overnight Oats

I'm showing you my delicious high-protein overnight oats recipe that goes beyond JUST protein. While high protein is a hot & trending topic, I believe in balancing all macros and micros for optimal benefits.

Ingredients:

• 1/3 cup oats

• 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk

• 1 tbsp chia seeds

• 1 tbsp cacao powder

• 1/4 cup plain yogurt

• 1 scoop protein powder (or replace with an additional 1/4 cup yogurt and double the maple syrup if not using protein powder)

• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

• 1/2 tsp almond extract

• Spoonful of maple syrup

• 1/2 tsp cinnamon

• Pinch of sea salt

Toppings:

• 1/4 cup plain yogurt (unsweetened)

• Drizzle of honey

• 1/4 cup blueberries

• 1/2 banana, sliced

• 2 tbsp chopped walnuts

• 2 tsp cacao nibs

Instructions:

1. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the oats, coconut milk, chia seeds, cacao powder, plain yogurt, protein powder (or additional yogurt and maple syrup), vanilla extract, almond extract, maple syrup, cinnamon, and sea salt.

2. Stir well until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.

3. Cover the bowl and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours.

4. In the morning, give the oats a good stir and transfer to a serving bowl.

5. Top with 1/4 cup of plain yogurt, a drizzle of honey, blueberries, sliced banana, chopped walnuts, and cacao nibs.

6. Enjoy your delicious and nutritious overnight oats!

My overnight oats pack 30g of protein, 18g of fiber, and 11.5g of healthy fats, catering to all your nutritional needs (will depend on what protein powder you use!). Remember, it's not just about protein, but about a well-rounded meal that nourishes your body.
