½ cup rolled oats
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 tablespoon peanut butter
1 tablespoon maple syrup
½ cup milk of choice
¼ cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
pinch salt
optional: banana slices, dark chocolate chips, crushed peanuts

1. In a mason jar or bowl, mix rolled oats, cocoa powder, and salt.
2. Add milk, yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla. Stir to combine.
3. Swirl in peanut butter without fully mixing.
4. Cover and refrigerate overnight or at least 6 hours.

If using protein powder, add an extra splash of milk.
Swap peanut butter for almond or cashew butter for variation.
