What ingredients do I need to make these Reese’s PB cup overnight oats?

Well, I am so glad you asked;) The ingredient list is super simple, made with a few ingredients and no refined sugar! Check out the full list below!

• Oat flour or rolled oats (Use gluten-free if needed!)
• TumLove chocolate protein powder (or any chocolate protein powder, see notes for subs*) I like this one because it’s dairy free and low FODMAP!
• Drippy peanut butter (or any nut butter)
• Almond milk (unsweetened)
• Chia seeds
• Vanilla extract (optional)
• Chocolate chips (I opt for BakeBelieve, a unrefined sugar variation!)

Tips and alternatives to oat flour!

If you do not have oat flour, simple blend oats into a blender. For this recipe, you need 1/2 cup of oat flour, which means you need to blend 3/4 cup whole oats to yield 1/2 cup of oat flour. Another option would be to blend all the ingredients (minus the chocolate and extra peanut butter topping) into a high speed blender and then pour into a container. However, if you do not have a blender just use a heaping 1/2 cup of whole oats and continue to follow the recipe. Don’t worry about blending. Obviously the texture will be different, but the taste will be just the same!

Why should I make these high protein overnight oats?

If you enjoy high protein, filling recipes that can be made the night before, this recipe was literally made for you. I love blended overnight oats (I’m not a huge fan of unblended overnight oats though) because I can make them the night before and then grab them and go on busy mornings. This recipe is seriously so satisfying, after eating these I have energy upon energy at least until lunchtime.

The protein powder provides excellent muscle replenishment and hunger satisfaction. The chia seeds are extremely high in fiber and many essential nutrients. And the oats provide a wonderful source of balanced and whole-grain carbohydrates that is essential for our nutrition. Plus, the peanut butter is a great source of healthy fats and added protein, and the chocolate makes it dang good. These Reese’s PB cup overnight oats are basically a superfood.

A quick note on protein powder:

The texture of your blended overnight oats highly depends on the absorbency of the protein powder used. I have found that whey protein powder is less absorbant that traditional vegan protein powders. If you use whey protein powder in this recipe, reduce the almond milk to 1/2 cup, or add an additional tbsp of protein powder.
