Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 0.5 cup vegan protein powder

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 2 tbsp plant-based milk as needed
  • 0.33 cup vegan chocolate chips or dried fruit optional
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil optional for firmer texture

Method
 

  1. Combine oats, protein powder, chia seeds, and salt in a large bowl.
  2. Warm nut butter and maple syrup until smooth. Stir in vanilla.
  3. Mix wet into dry ingredients. Add plant milk if mixture is too dry.
  4. Fold in chocolate chips, dried fruit, or other optional mix-ins.
