Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1-2 tbsp sweetener (e.g., maple syrup, stevia)
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk

Optional Toppings

  • 1 tbsp mini chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup fresh berries
  • 1 tbsp nut butter
  • 1 tbsp shredded coconut
  • 1 tbsp chopped nuts
  • 1 tsp cacao nibs
  • 1 tsp hemp seeds
  • a dash of sea salt

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a jar or container, combine rolled oats, protein powder, cocoa powder, chia seeds, sweetener, and almond milk.
  • Stir all ingredients thoroughly until well combined and the protein powder is fully dissolved.
  • Cover the mixture and refrigerate it overnight, or for at least 4 hours, to allow the oats to soften and thicken.

Serving

  • The next morning, give the oats a good stir and add a splash more almond milk if needed to achieve your desired consistency.
  • Top with your favorite optional toppings such as mini chocolate chips, berries, or nut butter before enjoying your healthy breakfast.

Notes

You can adjust the amount of sweetener to your taste. For a thicker consistency, reduce the almond milk slightly. For a thinner consistency, add more almond milk. Ensure the protein powder is well mixed to avoid lumps. Enjoy cold!
