Servings: 1 serving
Calories: 346kcal
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup old-fashioned oats 35g, use gluten-free if needed
- 2 Tbsp. chia seeds 24g
- 1 tsp. black cocoa powder 5g
- 1 tsp. almond or vanilla extract 5g
- pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup Silk cashew milk 120g, or your favorite milk
- 1/2 scoop chocolate protein powder I used Active Stacks (15g)
Optional Toppings (not included in macros)
- Powdered peanut butter (I use about 1 Tbsp)
- Chopped strawberries
- Dairy-free whipped cream
- Pinch of cocoa nibs
Instructions
- In an airtight glass jar, combine the oats, chia seeds, cocoa powder, almond extract, salt, protein powder, and milk. Mix well.
- Place the mixed oats in the fridge overnight, mixing once or twice in the process to make sure the chia seeds don’t get clumpy!
- The following morning, pull your oats out of the refrigerator and top with your favorite toppings. I love to top mine with a tablespoon of powdered peanut butter, fresh strawberries, dairy-free whipped cream, and a little pinch of cocoa nibs. Enjoy!
Notes
GF/DF: Yep! Just make sure to use gluten-free oats, dairy-free protein powder and milk. My ALL-TIME favorite non-dairy protein is Active Stacks, which is a beef protein powder (use code LILLIE to save)
