No reviews

A creamy, no-cook breakfast that combines sweet banana and rich peanut butter. Prepared in minutes the night before for a stress-free, nourishing morning meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice (e.g., unsweetened almond milk)
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup or honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
  • 1 ripe banana, mashed

Instructions

  1. In a 16-ounce jar or airtight container, mash the ripe banana with a fork until mostly smooth.
  2. Add the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined and creamy.
  3. Add the old-fashioned oats and chia seeds. Stir to coat the oats in the wet mixture.
  4. Pour in the milk. Secure the lid on the jar and shake vigorously for about 30 seconds until everything is fully incorporated.
  5. Refrigerate the jar for at least 4 hours, but ideally overnight, to allow the oats to soften and the mixture to thicken.
  6. In the morning, stir the oats. Enjoy cold, topped with additional banana slices, a drizzle of peanut butter, or other desired toppings.

Notes

For best texture, use old-fashioned rolled oats, not quick oats. Add fresh toppings just before serving to prevent sogginess. The recipe can easily be doubled or tripled for meal prep and will keep in the fridge for 4-5 days.
