Cinnamon Roll Overnight Oats
I’m usually a savory kind of girl in the morning - but overnight oats are like dessert first thing in the morning.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats
3/4 cup milk of choice (I use vanilla almond milk)
1/4 cup tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
1/2 scoop (about 15g) vanilla protein powder (I use Legion Athletics)
1t chia seeds
Sprinkle of cinnamon depending on preference (usually about 1t)
1t vanilla extract
2t maple syrup
¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions:
Combine ingredients in a bowl (I add them all into a mason jar since that’s how I store them), or large bowl if you are meal prepping multiple servings.
Mix well and pour into an airtight container (if you are making it directly into your mason jar just make sure to really stir/mix it up well - you can even just pop the lid on and shake it up really well).
Let the oats sit in the refrigerator for at least 4-6 hours, or overnight - Make up to 2-3 days in advance (any more than that, I feel like it doesn’t taste as good). Mix it up before eating.
I will also add bananas, strawberries, blueberries or raspberries to it in the morning. If the texture is a bit thick - you can add more milk and stir it up.
If you love the idea of overnight oats - but this prep still feels like too much…I have also used OATS OVERNIGHT - which is a company that makes packs of this - you just add milk and shake it up to put int he fridge overnight. Salted toffee & blueberry cobbler are my favorite flavor from them!!

Really, just use them however you want! Sometimes we really do need to simplify things so much - and this is one way to do it!
