Once, I forgot to really mix in the protein powder and ended up with weird clumps—blend it thoroughly for a smooth bite.
Swapping in chocolate protein powder turns these oats into a dessert breakfast (fair warning: it’s addictive).

Lining your jars with yogurt before adding oats keeps everything from sticking and creates pretty layers.
A quick taste before chilling lets you tweak the sweetness just how you like it.
