Prep Time250 Minutes
Servings1
0Ingredients
1 banana, sliced
1 tbsp nut butter of your choice
1 1/2 tsp chia seeds
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup unsweetened soy milk (or any milk of choice)
1 tsp maple syrup
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
a dash of cinnamon (optional)
Directions
- Place 3 to 4 slices of banana in the bottom of a jar. Layer 1 1/2 tsp of nut butter, 1/2 tsp of chia seeds, and 1/2 cup of oats on top. Repeat layering remaining almond butter, chia seeds, and oats, leaving a 1-inch gap at the top.
- Mix milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Pour over oats, leaving a 1/2-inch gap at the top (to allow oats to expand as they soak). Push a knife vertically through the centre of oats mixture jar to make sure milk reaches the bottom of the mixture.
- Cover jar tightly and refrigerate until oats are moist, 4 hours to overnight.
