Ingredients
Scale
Graham Crust
- ¼ cup graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tbsp milk
Overnight Oat Mixture
- ½ large ripe banana (mashed)
- ½ cup milk
- ½ tbsp maple syrup
- 2 tbsp vanilla Greek yogurt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup oats (quick, minute or rolled)
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tbsp vanilla protein powder
Toppings
- 2 tbsp vanilla Greek yogurt
- Sliced bananas
- Crushed graham crackers
Instructions
- Prepare the Graham Crust: In a 10 oz mason jar or glass container, combine the graham cracker crumbs and 2 tablespoons of milk. The mixture should be moist enough to hold together but not overly liquid. Use a spoon to gently press this mixture into the bottom of the jar to form an even crust layer.
- Make the Oat Mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mashed banana, ½ cup milk, maple syrup, 2 tablespoons vanilla Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add the oats, chia seeds, and vanilla protein powder, mixing well to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
- Assemble and Chill: Pour the oat mixture over the graham cracker crust in the jar. Cover the jar with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate it for at least 3 hours, ideally overnight, allowing the oats and chia seeds to soak and thicken.
- Serve and Garnish: In the morning, top the overnight oats with the remaining 2 tablespoons of vanilla Greek yogurt. Finish by adding sliced bananas and a sprinkle of crushed graham crackers for added texture and flavor. Enjoy directly from the jar or transfer to a bowl if preferred.
Notes
- Use quick, minute, or rolled oats according to your preference; rolled oats will give a chewier texture.
- Maple syrup can be replaced with honey or agave nectar if desired.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute milk and Greek yogurt with plant-based alternatives.
- You can prepare multiple jars for a quick grab-and-go breakfast throughout the week.
- Adding chia seeds boosts fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
