Ingredients

For the Base

  • 2 cups vanilla or unflavored almond milk, or preferred milk
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder (can sub with unflavored)
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 2 tablespoons Instant Jell-O cheesecake pudding mix
  • 1/2 cup 100% pure pumpkin
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup, optional

Highly Recommended Toppings

  • Banana slices or cinnamon apples
  • Whipped Cream
  • Chopped or crushed pecans
  • More pumpkin pie spice

Instructions

  • Option 1: (for best distribution) Add all base ingredients to a bowl and whisk until smooth and well-combined. Taste test, and add maple syrup if needed. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight. After refrigeration, separate the overnight oats into two separate jars or containers.
  • Option 2: Add 1/2 cup of rolled oats to two mason jars or storage containers. Add all remaining ingredients to a bowl and whisk until smooth. Taste test, and add maple syrup if needed. Evenly distribute this mixture into the two separate containers, and stir to combine. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight for best results.
  • Top your overnight oats with banana slices, whipped cream and chopped pecans. Enjoy!
    If storing oats for later, make sure the bananas are covered by the oats mixture so they don't spoil. Or, add banana slices when ready to consume.

Notes

  • Store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
  • If the overnight oats taste gritty or have a weird aftertaste, add 1-2 teaspoons of maple syrup which helps disguise that taste.
  • Jell-O Cheesecake Pudding is not gluten-free, however, the vanilla flavor is! This would be a good substitute.
