Butterfinger Protein Oatmeal
Butterfinger Overnight Oatmeal is a delicious and easy breakfast for winter but can be super high in carbs if you aren’t careful!
To keep things balanced, add some fats and protein. This will help your macro pie chart but will also help stay full for several hours after you eat.
Ingredients for Butterfinger Protein Oats
- Oats – (I use gluten free)
- Almond Milk
- Protein Powder – chocolate or vanilla are both good!
- Peanut Butter or Peanut Butter Powder
- Butterscotch Pudding Powder
- Flax Meal – has omegas, protein, fiber so it’s a great add-in but not required!
- Mini Chocolate Chips
Butterfinger Proats
You can prep the night before with the oats and milk in a glass mason jar. Store in fridge overnight.
