Bison-bar overnight oats.

Name: Bison-bar overnight oats.
Total time: 5 min
Yield: 1 serving
Ingredients: 1/2 cup rolled oats (not quick or steel-cut); 3/4 cup whole milk (or grass-fed); 1 Genesee Snickerdoodle bar (crumbled); 1 tbsp chia seeds; 1 tsp raw honey or pure maple syrup; 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon; Pinch of sea salt; Optional toppings: sliced banana, chopped nuts, more honey

Five minutes the night before gives the oats, chia, and Snickerdoodle bar time to soften into a cinnamon-forward breakfast by morning.

5 min1 serving

Why this works

One current Snickerdoodle wrapper lists 21g protein and 290 calories. The finished bowl adds whatever the selected milk, oats, chia, honey, and toppings contribute; it does not need an unsupported finished-recipe macro claim.

Ingredients

1/2 cup rolled oats (not quick or steel-cut)
3/4 cup whole milk (or grass-fed)
1 Genesee Snickerdoodle bar (crumbled)
1 tbsp chia seeds
1 tsp raw honey or pure maple syrup
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
Pinch of sea salt
Optional toppings: sliced banana, chopped nuts, more honey

Method

1
Combine rolled oats, milk, chia seeds, honey, cinnamon, and salt in a 12-16oz mason jar or glass container. Stir well.
2
Crumble the Genesee Snickerdoodle bar into the jar, breaking into roughly pea-sized pieces. Stir gently — you want pieces distributed, not pulverized.
3
Cover and refrigerate at least 6 hours, ideally overnight. The oats hydrate and the bar partially dissolves into the milk, leaving a few chewy chunks for texture.
4
In the morning: stir to redistribute, taste, and adjust honey if you want it sweeter. Top with sliced banana, chopped nuts, or a final drizzle of honey if you have 30 extra seconds.
5
Eat cold straight from the jar, or warm in a microwave for 60 seconds if cold-oats aren't your thing. Either works.

Notes & variations

Nutrition depends on milk and topping choices. Use each package label when you need exact totals.
Allergen check: the current Snickerdoodle wrapper declares milk and peanuts. The recipe also uses milk and optional nuts.
Batch-prep only what you will refrigerate and eat within 3 days. Keep at 40°F/4°C or below and add fresh toppings just before serving.
Bar swap: White Chocolate Toffee gives a sweeter profile; note that its current label declares soy as well as milk and peanuts.
