Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium mixing bowl, add rolled oats, Greek yogurt, milk, and chia seeds. Mix thoroughly with a spatula until all ingredients are well combined and the oats are evenly coated.
  2. Incorporate peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt into the oat mixture. Stir vigorously until the peanut butter is fully integrated.
  3. Spoon the overnight oats into airtight mason jars or a storage container. Leave some space at the top as the oats will expand.
  4. Spoon one-third of the oat mixture into each jar, then add about 2 tablespoons of chia seed jam on top.
  5. Fill the jars with the remaining oat mixture. Optionally, top with extra chia seed jam and fruits or nuts.
