Peanut Butter Banana Overnight Oats

March 9, 2015

I was a little slow to jump on the overnight oats train, but I am so happy I finally did!!

If you follow me on twitter and Instagram, I rave about them all the time!  I think I’ve shared the recipe about ten times by now.  Why it took me so long to share it here, I have no idea…

There are a million different ways to make your own overnight oats, but this is the recipe I used the first time I tried them and it has been love ever since.  I’ve never been an oatmeal fan, but this is like a dessert for breakfast and the consistence is a bit thinner which is why I love it so much.  The sweetness of the banana and peanut butter, with the touch of cinnamon – delicious!

Here it is, my all-time favorite Overnight Oats Recipe!
