Scale
Banana Chocolate Chip Overnight Oats
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 teaspoons chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons non-dairy yogurt
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2–4 teaspoons pure maple syrup
- 1 cup unsweetened milk of choice
Toppings
- Fresh banana slices
- Mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Set aside 2-3 resealable jars. Here are the resealable mini glass jars that I use–if using these, set aside 3 jars.
- Prepare overnight oats in a mixing bowl for easier mixing.
- Add banana to mixing bowl and mash until mostly smooth.
- Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl. Whisk until very well mixed and chia seeds are thoroughly distributed.
- Pour the chocolate chip banana overnight oats mixture into the jars. Add any toppings you’d like now, or wait until serving (for ultra fresh toppings). Seal.
- Store overnight in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Overnight oats will become thicker as each day passes. If desired, add non-dairy milk and mix well to thin it out. Enjoy cold, or heat in the microwave in 20-second increments until warm.

Notes
