A creamy, comforting, and easy overnight oats recipe combining peanut butter, banana, and chocolate chips for a delicious and healthy breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (90g)
  • 3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter (48g)
  • 1 large ripe banana, mashed
  • 1 cup milk (240ml), dairy or plant-based
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt (120g)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (21g), optional
  • ¼ cup mini chocolate chips (40g)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (12g), optional
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Mash the banana in a mixing bowl or jar until smooth but still a bit chunky (1-2 minutes).
  2. Stir in peanut butter, Greek yogurt, milk, honey or maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract until peanut butter is mostly blended but still swirled (2-3 minutes). Warm peanut butter slightly if too stiff.
  3. Add rolled oats, chia seeds (if using), and a pinch of salt. Stir thoroughly to coat oats evenly (about 1 minute).
  4. Gently fold in mini chocolate chips, being careful not to overmix (30 seconds).
  5. Transfer mixture to a lidded container or jar if not already in one. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  6. The next morning, stir the oats well. Add a splash of milk if needed to loosen. Top with sliced banana, extra chocolate chips, or a drizzle of peanut butter if desired. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture. Warm peanut butter slightly if too stiff for easier mixing. Add fresh banana slices just before serving to avoid browning. Overnight oats keep well up to 3 days refrigerated. For dairy-free, swap Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt and milk with almond or oat milk. Mini chocolate chips melt just right overnight without turning the mixture into a melted mess.
