# Components:
→ Oats Base
01 - 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
02 - 1 cup milk (dairy or unsweetened non-dairy)
03 - 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
04 - 2 tablespoons chia seeds
05 - 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup or honey
06 - 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
→ Peanut Butter & Mix-ins
07 - 3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
08 - 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
09 - Pinch of salt (optional)
# Directions:
01 - In a medium bowl or jar, combine rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until all components are well integrated.
02 - Swirl the creamy peanut butter into the oat mixture, intentionally leaving some streaks for textural variation if desired.
03 - Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips and the pinch of salt, if using, ensuring an even distribution.
04 - Divide the prepared oat mixture evenly between two individual jars or airtight containers.
05 - Cover each container tightly and refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to meld and the oats to soften, a minimum of 8 hours.
06 - In the morning, stir the chilled oats to loosen them. Serve cold, adding extra dollops of peanut butter or a sprinkle of chocolate chips for garnish if preferred.
