How to Make Peanut Butter Banana Overnight Oats

Ingredients

• 1 large ripe banana, mashed
• 1 1/4 cups almond milk (or milk of choice)
• 1 (5 oz) cup vanilla siggi’s yogurt (or substitute with plain yogurt)
• 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
• ½ teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds
• 2 tablespoons peanut butter, plus more for layering and topping
• Banana slices
• Optional: extra chia seeds and/or chopped peanuts for crunch

Directions

1. In a large bowl, combine the mashed banana, almond milk, and vanilla siggi’s yogurt. Stir until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and well blended.

2. To the wet mixture, add the gluten-free rolled oats, cinnamon, chia seeds, and peanut butter. Mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.

3. Cover the bowl tightly and place it in the refrigerator. Allow the mixture to soak for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight. This soaking time helps the oats absorb the liquid and soften.

4. Once ready to eat, divide the overnight oats evenly between two 12-ounce mason jars or serving containers. For added texture and flavor, layer extra peanut butter and banana slices between the oats if desired.

5. Top each serving with 1 tablespoon of peanut butter and a few fresh banana slices. For a crunchy element, sprinkle additional chia seeds or chopped peanuts on top. Serve chilled.

How to Serve Peanut Butter Banana Overnight Oats

These oats can be served directly from the fridge in mason jars or bowls. Enjoy them as a quick breakfast on the go or a healthy snack anytime throughout the day. You can also add some extra toppings, such as a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of granola, to enhance the flavor.

How to Store Peanut Butter Banana Overnight Oats

Store any leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container. They will stay fresh for up to 3 days. Just give them a good stir before eating, as they may thicken up in the fridge.

Tips to Make Peanut Butter Banana Overnight Oats

• Use a very ripe banana for better sweetness and creaminess.
• Feel free to mix in your favorite fruits, like berries or apples, for different flavors.
• If you want a creamier texture, try adding an extra scoop of yogurt.
• Adjust the amount of peanut butter according to your taste preferences.

Variation

You can swap out peanut butter for almond butter or any nut butter you like. For a chocolate twist, add cocoa powder or chocolate chips to the mix. You can also substitute the banana with applesauce or pumpkin puree for a different flavor profile.
