Ingredients
50g ripe banana
40g old-fashioned rolled oats
18g chia seeds
0.5 tsp cinnamon
1 pinch salt
155g milk
57g Greek yogurt
30g maple syrup
1g vanilla extract
Instructions
Mash the ripe banana with a fork in a small bowl until smooth and set aside.
Combine the rolled oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt inside a 16-ounce glass jar.
Stir the dry ingredients thoroughly to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Whisk in the milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Fold the mashed banana into the jar and stir vigorously to remove any clumps.
Seal the jar with a lid and place it in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours.
Notes
Use a 16-ounce glass jar for easier mixing and storage. For best texture, avoid quick-cooking oats. Substitute milk with almond or soy for non-dairy preferences. Maple syrup can be swapped for brown sugar if desired.
