40g Jungle Oats Original (Dry) | 152 kcal
40g Platinum Whey Protein (Vanilla flavor) | 156 kcal
50g (Half of a medium banana) Banana | 45 kcal
50g Chia Seeds (Dry) | 25 kcal

Instructions

Mix Dry Base: In a portable jar or bowl, combine the oats, protein powder, and chia seeds with a pinch of salt.

Incorporate Liquids: Pour in the almond milk and yoghurt. Stir thoroughly until the protein powder is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth without dry clumps.

Add Fruit: Gently fold in or layer the sliced banana on top of the mixture.

Set: Cover the container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, though letting it soak overnight yields the best results.

Adjust & Serve: Give the oats a quick stir before enjoying. If the consistency is too thick, stir in a small splash of extra milk or water.

Chef's Notes

General Notes:
Flavor Profile: The vanilla protein provides a natural sweetness that perfectly complements the banana and cinnamon, removing the need for extra sweeteners.

Texture: The combination of chia seeds and yoghurt creates a satisfying, pudding-like creaminess as it soaks.

Meal Prep Notes:
This is an ideal “grab-and-go” meal. You can prepare several jars at once to have breakfast ready for the entire half-week.

Freezer & Unfreezing Notes:
This recipe is not suitable for freezing, as the texture of the yoghurt and fresh banana will degrade significantly upon thawing.

Travel Notes:
Because it is served chilled and prepared in a jar, it is perfectly suited for eating during a commute or at your desk. Keep it in an insulated bag if traveling for more than an hour.
