If I had to choose one overnight oats flavor to eat for the rest of my life, it would hands down be this peanut butter banana variation. I can’t even count the amount of times I’ve made them and the same goes for lots of you. I love eating them with a giant scoop of peanut butter on top with some sliced bananas. And, more recently, I’ve been adding a scoop of protein powder!

Ingredient Swaps
- Add protein: If you’re hoping to fit more protein into your diet, go ahead and try adding around 2 tablespoons of your favorite protein powder or collagen.
- Use a different sweetener: feel free to swap the honey for maple syrup, agave, or even brown sugar.
- Swap the peanut butter: if you can’t do peanut butter, any kind of nut butter works.
Topping Ideas
Don’t forget the toppings…it’s the best part! We went with more sliced bananas, a dollop of creamy peanut butter, and some chopped peanuts. Here are other ideas:
- Berries
- chocolate chips
- Fresh lemon zest
- Almond milk
- Dried cranberries

Can I use steel cut oats as a replacement for rolled oats?
Unfortunately you can not sub steel cut in this overnight oat recipe!
Iโm excited to make this! I have peanut butter powder and I was wondering if itโd be good to use that instead. What do you think?
I don’t see why not! You may need to add a little bit more almond milk!
I appreciate, cause I discovered just what I used to be taking a look for.
