Banana Cinnamon Overnight Oats

In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chia seeds, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.

In another bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth. Then add the milk, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Mix well to combine.

Pour the banana mixture into the dry oat mixture. Stir until all of the oats are well-coated and combined.

Divide the oats evenly into two mason jars or airtight containers. If desired, sprinkle chopped walnuts or almonds on top.

Seal the jars or containers and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours, to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and soften.

In the morning, give the oats a good stir and enjoy them cold, or warm them up in the microwave if you prefer.
