Ingredients

⅓ cup GF rolled oats
1 tbsp chia seeds optional - see note*
½ tbsp ground flaxseed optional - see note*
1 scoop vegan vanilla protein powder (36g) or cookies & cream flavor**
pinch of kosher salt
splash of vanilla extract
2 tbsp plain greek yogurt (or dairy-free equivalent)
1 cup milk of choice ***
2 chocolate sandwich cookies crushed (I used Simple Mills brand)

Instructions

Add oats, chia seeds, flaxseed, protein powder and salt to a medium-sized glass jar. Stir until combined.
Then, add in the vanilla, greek yogurt and milk. Stir until combined.
Finally, add in the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies and stir once more until incorporated.
Cover with a lid and place in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, ideally overnight.
When you're ready to eat, you can top it with more crushed chocolate sandwich cookies and white chocolate chips if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

*NOTE: Chia and flax add additional nutrients to this recipe, however if you want to omit them, simply reduce the amount of milk to 2/3 cup.

**NOTE: If you're using a protein powder that doesn't have any sweetener, you may want to add a splash of maple syrup to the overnight oats. I highly recommend this Wellious vegan vanilla protein powder - the texture is great and it's sweetened with monk fruit.

***NOTE: If you prefer thicker overnight oats you can reduce the milk to 2/3 cup. If it ends up being too thick in the morning, you can always add a splash more milk (or water), stir it up, and it'll be good to go.
