Whenever I make overnight protein oats, I try to keep the added ingredients low in carbs (since the oats are carbs). For these Peanut Butter Overnight Oats, I used natural chocolate whey isolate, powdered peanut butter, and cacao nibs. All great low-carb choices. And a delicious combo! Seriously. As I was photographing the finished recipe, I just wanted to keep eating it. :)

For dairy-free or vegan options, use your favorite protein powder instead of the whey. Easy!

Give these Peanut Butter Overnight Oats a try, and wake up to a delicious, high-protein breakfast!

Notes

A note about substitutions: You could substitute any kind of protein powder you like (for dairy-free/vegan versions), but you may need more water with other protein powders. Also, if you use quick-cooking steel cut oats, reduce the amount to ¼ cup (for this amount of liquid and these macros).
