▢ 1 medium ripe banana peeled & mashed, spotty or light brown is best
▢ 1 cup rolled oats
▢ ¾ cup drinkable vanilla yogurt or ½ cup plant-based milk+ ¼ cup vanilla yogurt
▢ 2 Tablespoons chia seeds
▢ 1-2 Tablespoons maple syrup add to desired sweetness level
▢ ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
▢ ⅛ teaspoon salt just a pinch!

First, peel one banana, add to a mixing bowl, and mash with a fork.
Once mashed, add the remaining ingredients to the mixing bowl including rolled oats, drinkable yogurt, maple syrup, chia seeds, cinnamon, and a dash of salt.
Mix all the ingredients together, then pour into two small containers. Cover the containers and chill for 3+ hours, or ideally overnight, in the fridge.
The next day, take the overnight oats from the fridge, add your desired toppings, and enjoy cold or warmed up!

For toppings, I recommend adding more sliced bananas, almond butter, or maple almond butter granola. Walnuts, almond slices, or chocolate chips are other great topping ideas!
Overnight oats are best enjoyed within 3 days of making.
Chia seeds can be substituted for ground flaxseed.
Maple syrup can be reduced or omitted for a lower sugar option.
