    Simply combine your ingredients in a single-serve jar the night before, put the jar in the refrigerator overnight, and wake up to breakfast! You can even prepare the dry ingredients well in advance for easy meal prep!

    Peanut Butter Overnight Oats

    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!

    Ingredients

    • ⅓ cup rolled oats 32g
    • ⅓ cup natural chocolate whey isolate 35g
    • 1 tablespoon powdered peanut butter 6g
    • 1 ½ teaspoons cacao nibs 3.5g
    • ⅓ - ½ cup water 80-120ml

    Instructions

    • Put dry ingredients into jar.
    • Add enough water to cover ingredients, and mix well.
    • Set in refrigerator overnight (or for 4+ hours).
    • Enjoy!

    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).
