Instructions
- In a mixing bowl or mason jar, combine the rolled oats, chocolate protein powder, chia seeds, and sea salt.
- Add the almond milk, peanut butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir thoroughly until well combined.
- If using, fold in the dark chocolate chips for added texture and flavor.
- Cover the bowl or seal the jar with a lid and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours, to allow the oats to soak and flavors to meld.
- In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If desired, top with additional peanut butter, a sprinkle of chocolate chips, or sliced bananas.
- Enjoy chilled, or warm it up in the microwave for a cozy treat.
