Chocolate Banana Overnight Oats

If you haven’t tried overnight oats before, you are in for a real treat. This chocolate banana overnight oats recipe is a favourite – they are so simple to make, can be made days ahead and taste seriously delicious. They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day but who really has time to cook breakfast before work/school? Skip the cooking and make these overnight oats on Sunday and have breakfast for the week!

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup steel cut oats
• 2 tablespoons chia seeds
• 1 tablespoon ground flax seed
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon nutmeg
• 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup almond milk (you can use whatever milk you like, I just really love almond milk!)
• 1/3 cup maple syrup
• 1 banana
• 1/3 cup chocolate chips.

Directions:

1. Mix all of the dry ingredients in a jar. I use mason jars because they make everything look better.
2. Add in your wet ingredients, put on the lid and give it a good shake.
3. Put your oats in the fridge overnight or until you are ready to eat it. Cut up your banana, add it to the jar and sprinkle some more cinnamon and chocolate chips on top.
