Description
This nutrient-dense, high protein overnight oats recipe is the ultimate solution for busy mornings. By soaking rolled oats with protein powder, chia seeds, and your choice of milk overnight, you create a creamy, balanced breakfast that supports muscle recovery and provides sustained energy. It is a simple, no-cook preparation that ensures you start your day with a healthy, satisfying meal without any morning stress.
Ingredients
1/2 cup rolled oats
3/4 cup milk (soy, almond, or dairy)
1 scoop protein powder (whey or plant-based)
1 tablespoon chia seeds
Instructions
Combine the rolled oats, protein powder, and chia seeds in a clean glass jar or airtight container.
Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly to ensure the protein powder separates evenly without clumping.
Slowly add the milk to the jar while stirring to create a uniform base.
Seal the container tightly to maintain freshness.
Refrigerate the mixture for at least 8 hours until the oats have absorbed the liquid and softened.
Notes
Use certified gluten-free oats if necessary for dietary requirements. For a thicker, chewier texture, ensure you use traditional rolled oats rather than quick oats. If the consistency is too firm in the morning, stir in a splash of additional milk before serving.
