Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Microwave 1 cup of pitted fresh cherries in a microwave-safe bowl for about 30 seconds until softened. Mash the cherries with a fork, then stir in chia seeds, a splash of maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of gluten-free rolled oats, 1 scoop of plant-based vanilla protein powder, and a pinch of salt. Pour in 1 cup of almond milk, add 1/2 cup of coconut yogurt and drizzle with maple syrup. Whisk until creamy.
  3. Layer half of the oatmeal mixture in a jar, followed by half of the cherry chia jam. Repeat with remaining oats and jam and top with almond butter.
  4. Seal the jar and refrigerate overnight to soften the oats. This allows the flavors to meld and results in a creamy texture.
  5. In the morning, enjoy straight from the jar or warm in the microwave for 30 seconds. Top with slivered almonds or hemp seeds if desired.
