How to Make Banana Cream Pie Oats
Step 1: Combine Dry Ingredients
In a jar or container with a lid, add the rolled oats, protein powder, and chia seeds. Give them a quick stir to mix them up well. This helps prevent clumps later on.
Step 2: Add Wet Ingredients and Chill
Now, add the mashed banana, banana extract (if using), milk, and maple syrup to the jar. Stir everything thoroughly until all ingredients are combined. Cover the jar and place it in the refrigerator overnight, or for at least 6-8 hours, until the oats are soft and thick.
