Chocolatey make-ahead breakfast (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Main Ingredients

01 - 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk you prefer)

02 - 1 cup rolled (old fashioned) oats

03 - 2 Tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder

04 - 1/4 cup plain protein powder

05 - 1 Tbsp. pure maple syrup

06 - 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

# Instructions:

01 - Combine all ingredients in a small jar or container. If you're prepping two servings, divide between two jars. Stir everything thoroughly to mix well and break up any lumps of protein powder or cocoa.

02 - Place your jar(s) in the refrigerator and let sit overnight, or for at least 2 hours if you're in a hurry. Overnight soaking gives the best texture and flavor.

03 - When you're ready to eat, take the oats out of the fridge and give them a good stir to make sure everything is well mixed.

04 - You can eat directly from the jar or transfer to a bowl. For best taste and texture, enjoy within 24 hours of preparation.

# Notes:

01 - If using chocolate protein powder, you can skip the cocoa powder but keep the vanilla extract.

02 - If using vanilla protein powder, you can skip the vanilla extract.

03 - These oats can be enjoyed cold or warmed up in the microwave - just heat in short bursts to prevent overflow.
