Overnight Oats with Peanut Butter and Banana
Forget about the classic peanut butter and jelly pairing. What goes even better with our favorite sweet and savory nutty spread? Banana. This creamy, protein-packed meal will keep you full all morning long. And the best part is it's ready before you even roll out of bed.
Ingredients
Oats
¾ cup old-fashioned oats
½ banana
2 tablespoons peanut butter
1 tablespoon honey
½ to ¾ cup milk (such as whole, skim, almond, soy or coconut)
Toppings
½ banana, sliced
2 tablespoons peanut butter
Directions
1. Make the Oats: Pour the oats into a 1-pint mason jar.
2. In a small bowl, mash half of the banana with a fork. Add the peanut butter and the honey and mix to combine.
3. Add the milk to the jar with the oats. (If you prefer a thicker oatmeal, use less milk.)
4. Screw on the lid and refrigerate overnight, about 8 hours.
5. Make the Toppings: In the morning, top the oatmeal with the peanut butter mixture and banana slices. Eat immediately or screw the top on and take it on the go.
