A cool, creamy, and texture-rich overnight oats recipe combining peanut butter and banana for a healthy, satisfying breakfast that fits a calorie deficit diet.

Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats (45g)
  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk (120ml)
  • 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter
  • ½ medium ripe banana, mashed
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ⅛ teaspoon cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional toppings: sliced banana, crushed peanuts, honey or maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Mash half a ripe banana with a fork until mostly smooth but leaving a few small chunks for texture (about 1-2 minutes).
  2. Add 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter and stir vigorously to combine with the banana, breaking up any thick globs (about 2 minutes).
  3. Add ½ cup rolled oats, 1 teaspoon chia seeds (if using), ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract, ⅛ teaspoon cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir to distribute evenly (about 1 minute).
  4. Pour in ½ cup unsweetened almond milk and stir well to moisten everything evenly (about 1 minute).
  5. Cover the jar or bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  6. Before serving, stir the oats once more. Add a splash more almond milk if too thick. Add optional sweetener if desired.
  7. Garnish with fresh banana slices, crushed peanuts, or a drizzle of honey and enjoy.

Notes

Use rolled oats for best texture; avoid quick oats to prevent mushiness. Add sweeteners like honey or maple syrup just before serving to avoid overly mushy oats. Chia seeds are optional but add fiber and thickness. Prepare multiple jars for up to 3 days refrigerated storage. Warm peanut butter slightly if clumpy before mixing.
