Instructions
Prepare Your Jar:
Line your jar or container with a layer of creamy peanut butter, spreading it evenly along the bottom. This not only adds flavor but also prevents the oats from sticking.
Mix the Oat Base:
In a bowl, combine the cacao powder, 2 tablespoons of milk, the remaining 1 cup of your milk choice, maple syrup, chia seeds, and oats. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and well integrated.
Assemble the Layers:
Pour the prepared oat base into your jar over the peanut butter layer, smoothing it out to create an even layer. Next, arrange a layer of sliced bananas evenly over the oats, and then add a generous stack of fresh blueberries. These fruits provide a burst of natural sweetness and antioxidants.
Add Crunch and Nutty Flavors:
Sprinkle pumpkin seeds over the fruit for an enjoyable crunch. Finally, finish with a generous drizzle of pistachio butter on top, delivering a rich, nutty flavor that elevates this dish.
Refrigerate:
Seal your jar or container and refrigerate overnight (or at least 6 hours) so the oats and chia seeds absorb all the liquid, melding the flavors into a creamy, ready-to-eat breakfast.
