Combine rolled oats, cocoa powder, chia seeds (if using), and sea salt in a jar or bowl.
Add milk, peanut butter, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract; stir well until peanut butter is evenly mixed.
Seal and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours.
In the morning, stir the oats and add extra milk if needed for desired consistency.
Top with favorite toppings like banana slices, chopped nuts, or extra peanut butter before serving.

Swap peanut butter for almond, cashew, or sunflower seed butter.

Use almond milk, oat milk, or other dairy-free milk alternatives.

Add protein powder for an extra boost.

Mix in fresh or frozen berries for flavor and antioxidants.

Top with dark chocolate chips or shredded coconut for texture.

Store in refrigerator up to 3 days; best served cold or at room temp. Warm briefly if preferred.
