½ cup oats
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1 tablespoon vanilla protein powder optional
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
Pinch of salt
3 tablespoon plain 2% Greek yogurt
½ cup milk
1 teaspoon brown sugar or maple syrup
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
⅛ teaspoon almond extract optional- for a more 'cookie dough' flavour
½ tablespoon natural peanut butter
1 tablespoon chocolate chips

Instructions

In a mason jar or small bowl with a lid, add dry ingredients (oats, chia seeds, protein powder, cinnamon and salt), mix well. Add wet ingredients (Greek yogurt, milk, brown sugar/ maple syrup, vanilla extract, almond extract, peanut butter) mix and stir in chocolate chips.
Cover and place in the fridge for at least 3 hours (ideally overnight).

Notes

If you would like to omit the protein powder, feel free to leave it out (no substitutions are needed your oats will just be slightly less thick).
