Neapolitan

Overnight Oats

If you love classic Neapolitan flavors, these oats are such a fun breakfast. Each spoonful gives you a little bit of chocolate, strawberry and vanilla, creating the perfect balance of rich, fruity and creamy flavors. The beautiful layered look makes them feel like a dessert, but still fortifying and substantial.

Serving Size: Two jars

Ingredients

• 1.5 cup oats (divided)

• 1.5 cup almond milk (divided)

• 3 tbsp chia seeds (divided)

• 1 banana (mashed)

• 6 strawberries

• 1 tbsp chocolate protein powder

• 1 tbsp strawberry protein powder

• 1 tbsp vanilla protein powder

• 4 tbsp yogurt (divided)

Directions

1. Prep the base for each layer: Divide 1.5 cups oats, 1.5 cups almond milk, 3 tbsp chia seeds, and 3 tbsp yogurt evenly among three bowls (½ cup oats, ½ cup almond milk, 1 tbsp chia, 1 tbsp yogurt per bowl). Label the bowls Chocolate, Strawberry, and Vanilla.

2. Chocolate layer: Add 1 tbsp chocolate protein powder to the chocolate bowl and stir until combined.

3. Strawberry layer: In a food processor, blend 6 strawberries, and 1 tbsp yogurt until smooth. Stir this mixture into the strawberry bowl along with 1 tbsp of strawberry protein powder with oats until fully combined. (Pureeing the mixture creates a vibrant pink color, however you can skip blending and simply dice the strawberries for a chunkier texture.)

4. Vanilla layer: Mash 1 banana and mix it with 1 tbsp vanilla protein powder in the vanilla bowl until smooth.

5. Chill: Cover all bowls and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for a creamier, fully set texture.

6. Assemble in jars: Layer the chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla mixtures evenly into two jars, creating three distinct, colorful layers in each.

Helpful Tips

• You can add chocolate chips to the chocolate layer for a more decadent vibe.

• To make these oats dairy free, omit the yogurt or use Silk yogurt instead.

• If omitting yogurt, I would add 1/3 of a mashed banana to each layer to maintain a creamy texture.

• I prefer rolled oats, but quick oats may be used as well for a softer consistency. Avoid using steel-cut oats; they will remain firm and chewy without cooking.
