2 eggs
1½ bananas
1/8 teaspoon of baking powder
Dash of pure vanilla extract

Mash the bananas in a bowl with a fork
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, baking soda and vanilla together
Combine all the ingredients into one bowl and whisk together
Bring non-stick saucepan to low/medium heat.
Spoon about a tablespoon of the mixture into the heated saucepan and cook on each side for about 1 minute — until mixture is set

If you are not a morning person and struggle to eat breakfast when you wake up, overnight oats will be your best friend. Hell, even if you love breakfast and have all the time in the world, oats will be your best friend. Once you have the main ingredients, you can make oats for breakfast for months at a time before the essentials run out and you will ALWAYS feel satisfied.

Even better, you can make each and every batch of oats unique by changing just a few ingredients. Below is my favorite type of oats, but feel free to experiment and make them your own!

All you need is a mason jar to put everything in for easy ‘on-the-go’ breakfast in the morning. Eat them cold, or stick them in the microwave to warm them up—this is how I like my oats, nice and toasty 🙂

Ingredients

½ cup of oats
1 teaspoon of chia seeds
1 tablespoon of flaxmeal
1 tablespoon of PB2
1 tablespoon of honey
½ a banana, chopped
½ cup of almond milk
Water

Combine all ingredients in a mason jar and fill halfway with water. Give it a good shake to mix everything together. Pop it in you fridge and let the magic happen. The oats, flaxmeal and chia seeds with absorb the liquid overnight and by morning you will have a full jar of oats. Top with fresh fruit or eat as is.

NOTE: Oats are perfect for people who practice weekly meal prep. You can make a jar for every day of the week on Sunday, just make sure to only fill them with dry ingredients until the night before you want to have them — then mix in the fruit, liquids, etc.

***You can add anything and everything you want to your oats. Instead of PB2 try cocoa powder, or in place of honey use applesauce. Just always make sure to include the oats, chia seed, and flaxmeal. The rest is up to your imagination.
