Grind the oats in a high-speed blender or food processor and pour them into a bowl. Add the protein powder, almond flour, and nut butter. Stir the ingredients together and then add the vanilla and maple syrup and, using your hands, form it into a thick batter.
If the mixture seems really dry, add more peanut butter or maple syrup/honey.
Now, roll into balls (1-2 inches/2.5-5 cm) and put them on a plate. Place in the freezer for at least 30 minutes, then place in a tightly sealed container (or freezer-safe bag).
These will keep for a month in the fridge or 2 months in the freezer. ENJOY!!!
😋🍋Eat this Lemon Cream Overnight Oats as-is or with some yummy toppings – either way, you will be looking forward to breakfast!
You can use any kind of milk you want in this, but I like oat milk because it has a creamier texture.
✅If you want to boost the protein and cut back on the tartness, stir ½ to 1 scoop of your favorite vanilla plant-based protein powder. If you use protein powder, stir it in just before serving. You might have to add a little more milk so it doesn’t get dry.
LEMON CREAM OVERNIGHT OATS

1 cup (80 grams) old fashioned oats (gluten-free, if possible)
2 tbsp chia seeds
Juice of half a lemon

Place all the oats ingredients in a large mason jar and cover tightly. Shake it to mix the ingredients, and store it in the refrigerator overnight.
In the morning, shake the jar again and divide the oats between two bowls. Stir in the optional protein powder (and milk if needed). Add optional toppings and enjoy!
