1 cup rolled oats (80 g)
1 tbsp chia seeds (12 g)
2/3 cup (2 servings) protein powder (80 g) I use Orgain simple vanilla protein powder
1 1/2 cup (nut) milk (360 g) I use unsweetened almond milk

2 tbsp nut/seed butter (32 g)
2 tbsp (nut) milk (30 g)
1/4 cup protein powder (or oat flour) (30 g) I use Orgain simple vanilla protein powder
1 tbsp chocolate chips (14 g)

If using the protein cookie dough, stir together nut butter, nut milk and enough protein to get a soft non-sticky cookie dough. Stir in chocolate, press flat between 2 sheets of parchment and freeze until solid.
In a medium bowl stir together all ingredients. Transfer into 3 jars. Let these sit and thicken for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.
In the morning take one jar out, top with some fruit, nut butter and/or cookie dough pieces (just use a knife to chop the frozen dough, keep it frozen). Enjoy!
