Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pour 0.5 cup oats into a mason jar or container with a tight-fitting lid.

  2. Step 2

    Add 0.75 cup milk and 0.25 cup yogurt to the oats, stirring gently with a spoon until the oats are fully submerged and no dry flakes remain.

  3. Step 3

    Stir 2 tablespoons peanut butter directly into the oat mixture using a spoon, breaking up any clumps so the peanut butter is evenly distributed throughout.

  4. Step 4

    Drizzle 1 tablespoon honey over the mixture and stir once more until everything is evenly combined.

  5. Step 5

    Add the banana slices to the jar, gently folding them in with a spoon so they're mixed into the oat base.

  6. Step 6

    Cover the jar with the lid and place it in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, or overnight, until the oats have absorbed the liquid and become thick and creamy.

  7. Step 7

    Remove from the refrigerator; if the mixture looks too thick, stir in 1–2 tablespoons more milk until you reach your preferred consistency.

  8. Step 8

    Transfer to a bowl if desired, top with extra banana slices, and eat directly from the jar or bowl with a spoon.
