What do you do with the swirling bits of peanut butter that are left in the jar, well you make Overnight Oats, that’s what.
Overnight Oats or Oats In A Jar are a great way to use up all the peanut butter left in the jar.
Plus it’s an easy on the go meal that you can eat hot or cold. We all know how good oatmeal is for us, so this is a great option that is also super easy to make.
So I grabbed the almost empty jar of The Bee’s Knees’ peanut butter, and added 1/2 cup of oats, 1/2 cup of coconut milk and a few shakes of cinnamon and put it in the fridge for an overnight soak.
When you wake up in the morning you have a wonderfully flavored jar of oats that you can add anything and everything you like to it. I like to heat in the microwave for about a minute then top those oats with one, two or three of my favorite toppings. Here are a few suggestions.
Topping Ideas:
- Nuts
- Fresh fruits such as bananas, strawberries, blueberries
- Additional creamy nut butters
- Ground flax
- Chia Seeds
- Maple syrup
- Cinnamon
- Pumpkin spice
- Shelled hemp seeds
- Granola
- Cocoa powder
- Dried fruits
- 1 Tablespoon Trader Joe’s Sea Salt Peanut Butter
- 1 Tablespoon Chia Seeds
- Few shakes of Swanson Organic Cinnamon
- Banana Slices
