# Directions:
01 - In a medium bowl or large jar, combine rolled oats, eggnog, Greek yogurt, milk, and chia seeds. Stir thoroughly to blend.
02 - Incorporate vanilla protein powder, matcha powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, maple syrup or honey if using, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and evenly combined.
03 - Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken.
04 - In the morning, stir the mixture well. Add a splash of milk if the consistency is too thick, adjusting to preference.
05 - Divide the oats between two bowls or jars. Add optional toppings such as banana slices, toasted coconut flakes, chopped nuts, and an extra pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg. Serve chilled.
