Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 4 cups oat milk (or other milk of choice)
- 1 ripe banana, mashed
- 2 Tbsp chia seeds
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- kosher sea salt
Instructions
- Line up four wide-mouth mason jars (affiliate) or food storage containers and divide ingredients evenly. Into each jar: 1/2 cup oats, 1 cup milk, 1/4 banana, 1/2 Tbsp chia seeds, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, pinch of salt. Stir well until completely combined.
- Cover with lids and refrigerate overnight up to two days. Eat as is or add toppings of choice before serving!
Notes
- I used oat milk here because I love the creaminess and subtle sweetness. If you prefer the flavor or nutrition profile of another milk or milk alternative, feel free to use that instead!
- The mason jars I use and love can also be used as beverage glasses or to store sauces and dressings (affiliate link).
