These PB&J Overnight Oats are full of creamy Peanut Butter and Chia Jam. A hearty, filling, and a great way to enjoy the classic sandwich…for breakfast!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 3/4 cup Filtered Water
  • 1/2 cup Quick Cooking or Rolled Oats*
  • 1 tbsp Chia Seeds
  • 1 tsp Maple Syrup (Optional)
  • 2+ tbsp Chia Seed Jam
  • More Peanut Butter and Jam, for topping (Optional)

Instructions

  1. First, make your “Peanut Milk.” Add the Peanut Butter to a medium bowl and add a small amount of the Filtered Water to it. Use a whisk to “blend” the PB with the liquid, and gradually add more liquid while whisking until a smooth, Peanut Butter “Milk” forms. Add the rest of the Water to the bowl.
  2. Next, add the Rolled Oats, Chia Seeds, and Maple Syrup to the bowl. Mix well and let sit for 5 or so minutes, so the Oats can absorb some of the moisture.
  3. Scoop half of the Oatmeal into the bottom of a glass jar or Tupperware, then layer with Chia Seed Jam. Pour the remaining Oatmeal over top of the Jam, and top as desired. I like to keep things simple with more PB and Jam!
  4. Store in the fridge until ready to serve; the Oatmeal will keep well for up to 6 days.

Notes

  • Use Gluten-Free Oats, if necessary. You can use any “variety” of Oats other than Steel-Cut Oatmeal for this recipe.
  • Feel free to sub the Peanut Butter with another Nut or Seed Butter if you have an allergy. It will still taste delicious, that’s for sure!
  • You can substitute with store-bought jam or jelly, if you’d like.
