Ingredients
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 3 tbsp pumpkin puree
- 1/3-1/2 cup milk, of choice
- 2 tbsp of your favorite protein powder *I like using vanilla or salted caramel
- 1/4 cup THICK coconut yogurt or greek yogurt
- 1-2 tbsp maple syrup, monk fruit, or honey
- 3/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1-2 espresso shots (optional!)
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a large bowl, or directly into the jar you are storing it in, mixing well until combined and no clumps remain. Taste & adjust as you'd like (more pumpkin spice, vanilla, sweetener, etc). If you are using the espresso shot, start with 1/3 cup milk, adding more as needed. You don't want the oat mixture to be too thick as the oats soak up liquid. Add more as needed.
- If you mixed it in a bowl, then add the oats to your jar or container.
- Place in the fridge overnight, or at least 4 hours. When ready to eat, top with a little extra yogurt or any toppings you'd like and enjoy! You can also add a little extra milk if the oats are too thick!
