Instructions
-
Prepare Glass Jars
Arrange 3 clean 350-500 ml glass jars (such as Bonne Maman or Mason jars) on the counter.
-
Portion Dry Ingredients
Evenly distribute the rolled oats (~53 g per jar), protein powder (~21 g per jar), and ground flaxseed (1 tbsp / 7 g per jar) across all 3 jars.
-
Add Almond Milk and Stir
Pour ~112 g of unsweetened almond milk into each jar. Using a spoon or fork, stir each jar thoroughly from the bottom up to ensure no dry protein pockets remain.
-
Seal and Refrigerate Overnight
Tightly screw the lids onto the jars. Place them in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight so the oats soften into a creamy pudding. Enjoy chilled.
Useful Notes
Batch Scaling
For larger batches or bigger appetite jars, the ingredients can easily be scaled proportionally (e.g. 267 g oats, 107 g protein, 562 g almond milk, 35 g flaxseed).\n
