    To nippick..

    1.5 cup of oats = 450 calories
    1 cup almond milk = 40 calories
    1 tbsp PB2 = 23 calories
    1 tbsp brown sugar = 45 calories
    Total = 558 calories

    Even if you do get 4 servings out of it (I'd say... more like 2/3), that wouldn't be 100 calories each. Unless you're using oats that somehow have less than 150 calories for 1/2 cup (40g).

    To nitpick, "nippick" isn't a word.
    Nice recipe, OP!

    correction...

    MILK - 40
    PB2 - 23
    CINNAMON - 8
    OATS - 375

    SERVING 4 is 123 calories...

    I messed up on the oats.. but its actually a decent size snack. That is the whole purpose of a "SNACK" and it wont break you calorie bank where just only 2 tbsp of regular PB is 200+ cals!

    Heck if your so inclined.. make into 2 servings! it would only be 246 cals! Still very satisfying at one serving for me though. I didnt say it would feed an army... its a mid morning snack :)
    I make refrigerator oatmeal from time to time. I find it much more filling than regular oatmeal. Your recipe sounds tasty!

    I found this site (on a MFP Forum actually) with 6 DELICIOUS recipes for overnight oats, SO GOOD!

    Just made the Apple Cinnamon one this morning
    Picture Here: https://scontent-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpa1/t1.0-9/10456775_10102394173059825_4717980538720190514_n.jpg

    I made it with this Homemade Applesauce

    Edit: Subbed 1 TBSP Brown Sugar and only used 1/2 Cup Water

    Enjoy!!!

    Just wanted to share a low-cal recipe I have been using for overnight oats....

    1.5 Cups of raw oats
    1 cup unsweetened vanilla almod milk
    1 Tbsp PB2
    1 Tbsp Brown Sugar
    a heafty dash of cinnamon (I say 1tsp)

    Mix all together and let sit over... serves 4!

    My recipe builder calculates this at 85cals per serving! Of course you can add more PB2 of you love peanut butter or even add fruit for a little more extra cals! Its a great mid morning snack! Hope yall enjoy! :flowerforyou:

    trying to math here... 1.5 cups oats + 1 cup almond milk equals 2.5 cups. Other ingredients negligible volumewise. so 2.5 cups divided by four is like almost 2/3 of a cup per serving?

    is that right?

    yes that measurment is correct.... its not a SUPER HUGE portion, but if you'd eat double the serving then 250cals or so is not so bad for breakfast. Also.. adding fruit will help too...

    Getnfit87 - let me know what you think of it! :) Brown sugar is a must for me to add some sweetness to it!

    This combination of grains, sugar, low-fat PB2 and whatever fruit you add such as bananas,

    will probably stimulate hunger in another hour or so. Not low-carb. You'd be better off (and cheaper) with regular no-sugar high-fat peanut butter.

    I made this last night with steel cut oats... The steel cut oats are pretty high calorie and bring a bit more texture to it. I ate it for breakfast. In fact, when I remembered it was waiting for me, I jumped out of bed and ran to the kitchen to try it. Definitely several servings there... way too much to eat at once. It is high carb but the steel cut oats are high fiber and I wasn't hungry again until well past mid-day. Thanks for sharing!

    Depenbding on your GF needs this may not be GF - a lot of people avoid oat gluten as well so if you 're going for the strictest of strict definitions of Gluten Free you need to ensure that you are starting with GF oats (yes it's a real thing :) )
