Strawberry Banana & Peanut Butter Overnight Oats

Another overnight oat recipe for the books! Sorry I’m not sorry that I love these recipes. It makes me feel better about my love for all things bacon and cheese.

You know the deal with overnight oats: you put a little of this, a little of that, mix it all with the oats, and in the morning you have a delicious (and healthy) breakfast to go. Or to stay. Whatever your morning routine is, I promise you it works. The combo of strawberry and banana is just perfect, and the PB addition almost makes you feel like a kid again. Save the other half of the banana in a ziploc bag in the fridge – you can top it off with some fresh slices in the am.

Note: I use Lactaid 2% milk because regular milk doesn’t like me. I’m not lactose intolerant, but for some reason I’m sensitive to regular milk. But you can use whatever “milk” you like! And I don’t love things to be overly sweet, so you can add a bit more agave nectar or honey if you like things sweeter. 

Strawberry Banana & Peanut Butter Overnight Oats

  • 1/2 cup Old Fashioned Oats
  • 1/2 cup Lactaid 2% milk or Almond milk
  • 1 tbsp Fage Total Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp peanut butter
  • 1 tsp agave nectar or honey
  • Half of a banana sliced
  • 3-4 strawberries, halved
  • 1/4 tsp chia seeds (optional)

Directions

  1. Place first 5 ingredients in a mason jar or bowl and mix together.
  2. Add the sliced banana and strawberries and mix gently. You don’t want to totally mush the bananas. Just a slight mush will do. Mix in the chia seeds as well.
  3. Cover the mason jar or bowl and place in the fridge overnight.
  4. In the morning, enjoy as is, or top off with the other half of fresh banana and a few more sliced strawberries.

  1. Ooh I love overnight oats! I will have to try this combo out. Never thought of adding yoghurt, but I bet it makes it creamier.
    My favourite is with coconut milk, fresh figs, chia, shelled sunflower seeds, pepitas, maple and a drop of vanilla extract.
