Chef's Note
For the creamiest texture, use old-fashioned rolled oats rather than quick oats or steel-cut. The ratio of liquid to oats is crucial - if you prefer thicker overnight oats, reduce the almond milk by 1/4 cup. For thinner oats, add an extra splash in the morning.

2 cups rolled oats
2 cups almond milk
1 cup Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons chia seeds

3 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 medium bananas
1/4 cup almonds
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup blueberries
Instructions
- 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of rolled oats with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Stir to distribute the spices evenly.
- 2
Add 2 cups of almond milk, 1 cup of Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons of chia seeds, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the oat mixture. Stir until thoroughly combined.
- 3
In a small bowl, microwave 4 tablespoons of almond butter for 20 seconds until slightly softened and easier to work with.
- 4
Fold 3 tablespoons of the softened almond butter into the oat mixture, leaving some streaks for visual appeal.

Peel and slice 1 banana into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Reserve the second banana for serving the next day.
- 6
Divide half of the oat mixture among 4 mason jars or containers.
- 7
Layer half of the sliced banana rounds over the oat layer in each container.
- 8
Add the remaining oat mixture on top of the banana layer in each container.
- 9
Cover the containers and refrigerate overnight or for at least 6 hours to allow the oats to soften and the flavors to meld.
- 10
When ready to serve, peel and slice the remaining banana.
- 11
Roughly chop 1/4 cup of almonds.
- 12
Top each jar with the remaining sliced banana, chopped almonds, and 1/4 cup of blueberries.

Drizzle each serving with 1 tablespoon of honey, reserving the extra tablespoon for adjusting sweetness if desired.

For best texture, remove from refrigerator 5-10 minutes before eating.
