Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup Rolled Oats old-fashioned oats are best for texture
  • 1 scoop Vanilla or Unflavored Protein Powder approximately 30g
  • 1 tablespoon Chia Seeds
  • 1 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk or your preferred milk
  • 1/4 cup Fresh or Frozen Strawberries mashed or finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Sweetener honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar, optional
Optional toppings
  • Fresh strawberries
  • Granola
  • Greek yogurt
  • Chopped nuts
  • Shredded coconut

Equipment

  • Mason jar, airtight container, or bowl

Method
 

  1. In a mason jar, airtight container, or bowl, add the rolled oats, protein powder, and chia seeds. Stir these dry ingredients together thoroughly to ensure the protein powder and chia seeds are evenly distributed throughout the oats. This prevents clumps and ensures consistent texture.
    1/2 cup Rolled Oats, 1 scoop Vanilla or Unflavored Protein Powder, 1 tablespoon Chia Seeds
  2. Pour in the almond milk and add the mashed or finely chopped strawberries. If you prefer a sweeter breakfast, now is the time to stir in your chosen sweetener.
    1 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk, 1/4 cup Fresh or Frozen Strawberries, 1 teaspoon Sweetener
  3. Stir everything together until all the ingredients are well combined and there are no dry pockets of oats or protein powder. Ensure the chia seeds are submerged in the liquid to allow them to gel properly. The mixture should be homogenous, with no clumps.
  4. Cover the container tightly with a lid or plastic wrap. Place it in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight. This crucial chilling period allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften, creating that signature creamy, pudding-like texture.
  5. In the morning, give your Strawberry Overnight Oats Protein a quick stir. If it’s too thick for your liking, you can add a splash more milk to reach your desired consistency. Spoon the mixture into a bowl and top with your favorite toppings.

Notes

Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days in an airtight container. Enjoy cold, or stir in a splash more milk if too thick.
