Description
A delicious and nutritious Pistachio Overnight Oats recipe combining rolled oats, vanilla protein powder, and creamy pistachio butter, soaked overnight for a convenient, protein-packed breakfast with a delightful nutty flavor and creamy texture.
Ingredients
Overnight Oats Mixture
- ½ cup rolled oats
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk (or pistachio milk)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- ½ Tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 Tablespoon pistachio butter
- Pinch of salt
Toppings
- 1 Tablespoon chopped, roasted, and salted pistachios (plus more for topping)
Instructions
- Combine: Add rolled oats, vanilla protein powder, unsweetened almond milk, vanilla extract, chia seeds, maple syrup, pistachio butter, chopped pistachios, and a pinch of salt into a mason jar or container. Stir well to thoroughly combine all ingredients.
- Chill: Seal the jar or container and place it in the refrigerator. Let it soak for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
- Mix: In the morning, take the oats out of the fridge and stir the mixture. The oats, protein powder, and chia seeds will have thickened the mixture, so you may add a little more almond or pistachio milk if you prefer a creamier consistency.
- Serve: Top with additional chopped pistachios and a drizzle of pistachio butter or your desired toppings for extra flavor and crunch. Enjoy your nutritious and tasty pistachio overnight oats!
Notes
- You can substitute almond milk with pistachio milk for extra nutty flavor.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup or using a sugar substitute.
- For a vegan or dairy-free option, ensure your protein powder is plant-based.
- Chilling overnight is essential for the oats and chia seeds to properly absorb moisture and soften.
- This recipe serves one but can easily be multiplied for meal prep.
