Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup oats 40g
  • 1 Tbsp. chia seeds 12g
  • 1½ tsp. vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup cashew milk 180g
  • 1/4 tsp. liquid stevia
  • 1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder 16g

Instructions

  • Combine everything in a jar or other lidded container and refrigerate for at least four hours or overnight.
  • Remove from the fridge and add more milk if you like it thinner. Garnish with whatever toppings you like! We love fresh or frozen fruit, nuts, granola, nut butter etc..

Notes

GF/DF: Just make sure to use gluten-free oats and a dairy-free protein powder. My favorite dairy-free option is the beef protein by Active Stacks (use code LILLIE to save). Their chocolate is elite, but the vanilla is good too.
