In a jar or airtight container, mix the protein powder with almond milk first. Stir well to break up any lumps.
Add Greek yogurt and rolled oats. Mix everything together until fully combined.
Taste the mixture before adding maple syrup. If your protein powder is sweet enough, you may not need it.
Cover and refrigerate overnight or at least 4 hours.
In the morning, give it a stir, adjust consistency if needed with a splash of milk, and add your favorite toppings.
Quick Tips: For a creamier texture, add mashed banana or an extra spoonful of yogurt for extra smoothness.
