Chef's Note

For the best texture, be sure to use rolled oats rather than quick oats or steel-cut oats. To enhance the protein content even further, you can substitute some of the almond milk with liquid egg whites (pasteurized) - just make sure to add them after refrigeration and before serving. For variety, try rotating different seasonal fruits or adding a tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder to the base mixture.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats

  • 4 tablespoons chia seeds

  • 4 tablespoons flaxseed meal

  • 4 tablespoons hemp seeds

  • 4 scoops (120g) whey protein powder (unflavored)

  • 3 cups almond milk (unsweetened)

  • 8 tablespoons almond butter

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 4 tablespoons honey

  • 2 cups mixed berries (fresh or frozen)

  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds

  • 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds

Instructions
  • 1

    In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups rolled oats, 4 tablespoons chia seeds, 4 tablespoons flaxseed meal, and 4 tablespoons hemp seeds. Mix well to distribute the seeds evenly.

  • 2

    Add 4 scoops (120g) of unflavored whey protein powder to the dry mixture and whisk thoroughly to prevent clumping.

  • 3

    In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups unsweetened almond milk, 8 tablespoons almond butter, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 4 tablespoons honey until smooth and well combined.

  • 4

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until thoroughly combined, making sure there are no dry pockets.

  • 5

    Divide the mixture evenly among 4 mason jars or airtight containers (approximately 1 cup per container).

  • 6

    Cover and refrigerate overnight or for at least 6 hours to allow the oats and seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.

  • 7

    When ready to serve, top each portion with 1/2 cup mixed berries, 2 tablespoons sliced almonds, 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts, and 1 tablespoon pumpkin seeds.

  • 8

    Stir gently before eating to incorporate the toppings. Enjoy cold straight from the refrigerator.
