These creamy peanut butter banana overnight oats are a quick, no-cook breakfast that tastes like dessert but keeps you full until lunch. Made with simple ingredients and ready in 5 minutes, they’re perfect for busy mornings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (45g) rolled oats
  • 1/2 ripe banana (mashed)
  • 2 tablespoons (30g) creamy peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) milk (dairy, almond, oat, or soy)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup or honey (optional)
  • 1 pinch flaky sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a mason jar or small bowl, mash half a ripe banana with a fork until mostly smooth.
  2. Add 2 tablespoons of creamy peanut butter and stir into the mashed banana until combined.
  3. Pour in 1/3 cup of milk and stir until the banana-peanut butter mixture is fully incorporated.
  4. Add 1/2 cup of rolled oats and stir well, ensuring all oats are submerged. If using chia seeds, add 1 tablespoon now and stir again.
  5. Add a tiny pinch of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract (if using). Stir one final time.
  6. Seal the jar and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight (8 hours is ideal).
  7. In the morning, stir the oats. If too thick, add a splash of milk. Top with sliced banana, a drizzle of peanut butter, and optional toppings like chopped peanuts or cinnamon.

Notes

Mash the banana well to avoid cold chunks. Stir twice before refrigerating to ensure even distribution. Let the oats sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before eating for best flavor. For meal prep, make several jars at once and keep in the fridge for up to 4 days. Do not freeze.
