Good morning! Let’s kick off the week with a protein-packed and seriously delicious breakfast recipe!
Ever since I discovered the awesomeness of PB2 (side note: I actually resisted buying it forever, thinking WHY would anyone want powdered peanut butter when the real stuff is so amazing?), I find myself adding it to everything, including these super satisfying Overnight Peanut Butter Protein Oats.
With the hot, humid weather just around the corner, I see myself enjoying this breakfast a whole heck of a lot. It’s perfect for steamy summer mornings and all you need to do is grab a spoon and dig in. Easy as that! (Tip: Try these oats as a snack– just divide the recipe in half– so good!)

I’ve never seen powdered peanut butter in our part of the world – will keep my eyes peeled!
What would the amount be for actual peanut butter? And what’s the like benefits of using powdered?
@Aleisha: It is fat free and is very easy to add to just about anything. To turn it back into peanut butter for a sandwich, just add water or a combination of water and vegetable oil. Great stuff.
The powdered doesn’t have as many PUFAs. Check out my post from Fri for more info!
I had the same thought about powdered peanut butter, but it’s kind of it’s own thing. I like how easy it is to work with and combine into mixes, batters and smoothies.
can’t ever go wrong with overnight peanut butter oats! 🙂 🙂
I haven’t done powdered peanut butter in awhile but I may have to because I am loving this overnight deliciousness!
My sister introduced me to PB 2 years ago and I LOVE it!
yum!! Love breakfasts I can make the night before! I used to use powdered peanut butter a lot more, but these days, I prefer the real thing!
Thank yo Tina!! This is just the type of easy overnight oat recipe I’ve been Looking For!
PB2 has sugar in it. Why not just go for an all-natural nut butter instead? Both Macademia and Cashew have very low omega-6 profiles versus peanut and almond. I know it’s not the same taste but we can’t have everything we want.
I haven’t had much success with nut butters in overnight oats (they end up all clumpy), but definitely give it a try! Sounds delicious!
I go back and forth about PB2 but I love the idea of adding coconut oil!
Yum! These sounds so good!!
2 questions:
1. Eating it cold? I’m loving this idea… like sort of a peanut butter pudding type consistency?
2. When you do Macros, does that mean 30g protein, 37g carb, 6g fat? I’m just trying to “zone” it… so this would be a 4-block zone meal?
Thanks 🙂
I use powdered peanut butter all the time in bake goods and smoothies.
Has anyone made a large batch of overnight oats and eaten over a few days?
@Zana:
Zana…I have and it usually holds up pretty well.
Thanks Patti, I will give it a try.
I make six jars on Sunday and eat throughout the week
This is on the list of new breakfast ideas…I am in need of a change. I am very much an eggs woman!
After seeing this recipe, I threw a batch together to enjoy today. Holy yum!!
So glad you liked it!!
Peanut butter and banana concoctions make the absolute BEST breakfasts! I think it’s the sweet and salty combination that leaves me feeling so satisfied. I make a version of this with regular peanut butter but maybe now it’s time to give PB2 a try!
If you ever get a chance, try the “Just Great Stuff” brand PB powder. It has so much more flavor than the PB2 (in my opinion) and I’m always able to find it at Wegmans.
Will do! Thank you!!
Delicious!!
Since yesterday my favourite breakfast
So glad you like them!!
I make a version of this recipe, but because PB2 has sugar, I order this product from Amazon:

Warmly,

Do u cook the oats?
Nope!
Looks amazing, can’t wait to try it! Do you recommend any adjustments to the amount of the other ingredients if we don’t include protein powder, please?
Can I omit the yogurt?
