Description
Creamy cottage cheese overnight oats with almond flour for better texture. Higher protein, milder flavor than Greek yogurt, with chocolate peanut butter and berry variations.
Ingredients
Ingredients (Base):
- 1/4 cup oats (quick or rolled)
- 1/4 cup cottage cheese
- 1 Tbsp almond flour
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup (I use this zero sugar kind)
- 3 Tbsp milk
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
Chocolate Peanut Butter Variation:
- 2 Tbsp powdered peanut butter (PBFit)
- 2 tsp cacao powder
- Extra 2 Tbsp milk
- Chopped peanuts for topping
- Chocolate chips for topping
Berry Variation
- 1/4 cup frozen mixed berries
- 1 Tbsp chia seeds
- Extra 1/4 cup milk
- Fresh berries for topping
Instructions
- Mix the base. Combine oats, cottage cheese, almond flour, syrup, milk, cinnamon, and salt in a jar. Stir well. Add variation mix-ins before refrigerating.
- Refrigerate overnight. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Stir and serve. Give the oats a good stir. Add a splash of milk if too thick. Add toppings and enjoy cold.
Notes
Big batch: Multiply the base by however many servings you need. Mix in one bowl, then portion into jars with your chosen variation mix-ins.
Sweetener swap: Regular maple syrup or honey work. Just know they may affect your glucose response.
