Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup rolled oats (64 grams)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk (4 fl oz)
  • 1/2 cup Dannon Light & Fit Vanilla Greek yogurt (4 fl oz)
  • 2 tbsp vanilla whey protein (16 grams)
  • 1 tsp chia seeds (4 grams)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Flavor and Toppings

  • 2 fl oz espresso
  • 1 tbsp caramel sauce
  • Optional: whipped cream and extra caramel sauce for topping

Instructions

  1. Mix Protein and Liquids: In a bowl, whisk together the almond milk and vanilla whey protein until smooth, ensuring no clumps remain.
  2. Add Yogurt and Vanilla: Stir in the vanilla Greek yogurt and vanilla extract, whisking again until the mixture is fully combined and smooth.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: Add the rolled oats, chia seeds, and a pinch of salt to the bowl; mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated. Set this mixture aside.
  4. Prepare Serving Dish: Drizzle caramel sauce inside your serving container to coat the sides for extra flavor and presentation.
  5. Assemble Oats and Espresso: Spoon the oat mixture into the serving dish and then carefully pour the espresso over the top, allowing it to infuse into the oats gradually.
  6. Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the dish and refrigerate overnight to allow the oats to soften and flavors to meld perfectly.
  7. Optional Toppings and Serve: Before serving, optionally top with whipped cream and an additional drizzle of caramel sauce for a decadent finish.
