Fuel My Friday: Peanut butter and banana overnight oats

11 Jan 2019

Overnight oats! So easy and so delicious - prep them the night before and you've got a breakfast-to-go that's healthy and satisfying! 

You can choose what you put in them, but this has to be one of my favourite combinations right now - creamy banana and vanilla with chia seeds and a nice dollop of crunchy peanut butter! It's a heavenly breakfast in a cute jar (and it's environmentally friendly - bonus!), so if you'd like to try it yourself check out the easy recipe below!

Remember you can adjust it to meet your own dietary needs and taste preferences.

In a medium jar mix together 50g jumbo oats, 1tbsp chia seeds (optional), 1tbsp vanilla protein powder (optional) or 1tsp vanilla extract + 1tsp honey, 130ml milk (I love using almond milk in mine), and 1/2 chopped banana.
Leave overnight for the oats and seeds to absorb the milk.
Top with 1tsp peanut butter and a couple of extra banana slices to finish before you tuck in! 

(P.S. it doesn't just have to be for breakfast! Enjoy these overnight oats at any time of the day when you need a nutritious sweet treat!)
