- ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- ¾ cup unsweetened almond or cashew milk
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- ¼ cup grated zucchini
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla
- ½–1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional)
- 1 tablespoon chopped walnuts
Combine the ingredients: Place oats, almond milk, protein powder, grated zucchini, cinnamon, vanilla, and maple syrup (if using) in a container. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
Refrigerate overnight: Seal the container with a lid and let it chill in the fridge for at least two hours or overnight. This allows the oats to soak and soften.
Serve and garnish: In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If they seem too thick, add a splash of milk to loosen the texture. Sprinkle with chopped walnuts for a satisfying crunch, and enjoy cold!
