Almond Joy Overnight Oats

What are these overnight oats made of?

Oats - Quick oats are perfect for this recipe; however, steel cut or old fashioned oats would work as well.
AstroFlav Vanilla & Chocolate protein powder - Makes this recipe high-protein and also makes for a chocolatey taste and sweetens up the Greek yogurt.
Greek yogurt – Helps with thick consistency and adds additional protein to the filling.
Coconut flakes & almond slices - Add crunch and the delicious nutty taste of an Almond Joy.
Chocolate chips - Brings the recipe to a whole with the perfect amount of sweetness and chocolatey taste of an Almond Joy.

TIPS FOR CREATING THESE OVERNIGHT OATS

If oats are too dry, slowly add in almond milk as needed to help with consistency and to ensure there is no loose powder.
Oats are best enjoyed within the first few days as oats may become a bit soggy over the course of a few days.
To make sweeter, add a few teaspoons of a calorie-free/sugar-free sweetener.
