Equipment

2 Jars with lids (350ml/12 oz capacity)

Ingredients

1.5 cups rolled oats
1 cup almond milk (or your milk of choice)
2 tbsp peanut butter (smooth or crunchy is fine)
1 medium ripe banana, mashed (this is optional but makes the oats even more creamy and delicious)
½ tsp cinnamon
1 tbsp maple syrup
Extra toppings of your choice. I used strawberries, raspberries, chocolate chips, granola and a drizzle of maple syrup.

Instructions

Place half the oats, almond milk and cinnamon into one jar and the other half of these ingredients into another. Stir each to combine.
Mash the peanut butter and banana together, then place half in each jar
Stir all ingredients in each jar well, then put a lid on both and place them in the fridge overnight
Decorate the top of the oats with your toppings of choice and a little extra drizzle of maple syrup or honey the next morning before serving then enjoy!

Notes

You can use any nut butter you like here, it doesn't have to peanut butter. You can also add your toppings of choice. Some suggestions I mentioned in the post above for fruit are berries, passionfruit or even stewed apple or pear.
