How To Make High Protein Overnight Oats – Step-by-Step

Full instructions are on the printable recipe card below!

Place all the wet ingredients and dry ingredients in a high-speed blender and blend until combined. If you like chunky overnight oats, leave them out and add them after you pour the ingredients into a large bowl.
Add blended overnight oats to a large bowl and cover in an airtight container for a few hours or overnight. Serve in your favorite mason jar or bowl with your favorite toppings. We love ours with fresh berries, almond butter, and chocolate nibs or chocolate chips.

TIPS

Serve your protein oatmeal with a spoonful of peanut butter, almond butter, fresh fruit, or cocoa nibs!
If your oats are too thick add a splash of milk and give it a good stir!
You can also add a dollop of Greek yogurt for extra creaminess!
For best results use old-fashioned oats

Storage

Store oats in the refrigerator in an airtight container. You can refrigerate your oats in one large mixing bowl or glass jars with lids.
