Preparation

Step 1

Combine oats, milk, yogurt, chia seeds, cocoa powder, mashed banana, and optional peanut butter in a bowl.
Cover and refrigerate overnight.
Top with sliced banana and optional peanut butter in the morning!

The chia seeds are super important cause they expand overnight and become a jelly-like or pudding-like substance and absorb all the wonderful flavors! I got mine at Top Tomato!
**I didn’t even taste the peanut butter at all (I also used PB2 so that might be why) so next time I’m going to leave it out and just put in on the top in a big spoonful! If you are allergic though, you can leave it out of sub with another type of nut butter/seed butter.
