Prep Time250 Minutes

Servings1

Ingredients

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.
