Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup Rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup Milk Dairy or unsweetened plant-based
  • 1/3 cup Plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 scoop Vanilla protein powder Or unflavored
  • 1 tablespoon Molasses
  • 1-2 teaspoons Maple syrup Optional, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon Ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon Ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch Salt

Equipment

  • Glass Jar with Lid
  • Mixing Spoon

Method
 

Instructions
  1. In a jar or bowl, combine rolled oats, chia seeds, protein powder, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the spices and prevent clumping.
  2. Add the milk, Greek yogurt, molasses, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until smooth and fully combined.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the oats to soften and thicken.
  4. Stir before serving. Add a splash of milk if needed to adjust consistency. Top with yogurt, nuts, or a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.

Notes

Store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Adjust sweetness after chilling as flavors deepen overnight. For dairy-free, use plant-based yogurt and milk.
