There are far more than 265calories in it.

The nutrition facts are for 2 servings so 260 divided by 2 is 130 per portion. You can use PB2 (powdered peanut butter) instead to reduce calories if desired

In reply to Chelsea Lords.

I would love to know what brand of peanut butter you use then. Any peanut butter that I have found with 2 1/2 tablespoons would be 230 calories since 1 tbs of peanut butter is typically 90 calories. That would account for almost all the calories in the recipe so there wouldn’t be enough room for much else up equal 260. Does low calorie peanut butter exist? I’m genuinely curious since peanut butter has highet calories.

Okay, maybe to you, but some people do count calories so having inaccurate info is misleading and harmful. I’ve noticed this in several of your recipes calorie counts.

Oh bummer! Sorry you didn’t enjoy these; they definitely are creamy which is how we love them!

My mistake. I included 130 for 2 Tblsp of honey (that for me would be better instead of the syrup). Subtracting that helped a lot. That brought it down to 208. If I used 2 tbsp of maple syrup and 1 tsp choc. chips it would be 329. Definitly reasonable for a meal!

In reply to MG.

This does look really good. But When I calculated the calories it was quite a bit higher. It would be 338 for 1/2 of yours as written. If you add 1 Tbsp of maple syrup and 1 tsp of chocolate chips it would be 407. So if someone at the whole recipe we’re talking 814 calories.

In reply to chelseamessyapron.

I use buckwheat groats instead of oats for my ‘overnight soaked’ recipes, I love the ‘al dente’ texture. I can’t wait to try these and I can NOT agree more that ‘healthy’ is so much more than counting calories and tracking macros. I have never felt better or looked better since I stopped doing those things and eat according to whether I am hungry or full! Thank you!

This is super good. I used hot chocolate mix instead of the pudding because that is what I had and it was so good. I do not like cooked oatmeal but this is different. Glad I found your blog.

I just made this for tomorrow morning, used natural PB, plain Greek yogurt, almond milk and a tiny bit of maple syrup. I also added a tbsp of chia seeds to boost fibre and protein.

I have to omit yogurt due to an allergy. Maybe adding a banana will add more texture? Thank you for the recipe, I’ll be trying it tomorrow. There is a way to keep it under 350 calories, without the yogurt (just food for thought). I’m a calorie “watcher”, so I don’t mind a few extra calories!

In reply to Lindsi.

I absolutely think it’s healthy!! I believe health is so much more than counting calories or fat grams (especially with all the healthy fats in this recipe!), it’s about fueling your body with nutritious and good foods. Peanut butter, oats, yogurt, almond-milk — all good wholesome foods that are healthy and very filling for your body.

By: Lindsi

Lindsi — Sat, 23 Jan 2016 01:26:34 +0000

You claim this recipe to be “healthy” but adding the calories in my head and macros it’s really not. 500 calories, 17g of fat, and 50 g of carbs. Granted this is a rough estimate but pretty close. Yes, it looks pretty dang delicious though!

I just discovered your recipe for overnight PB cup oats. I recommend warming the peanut butter and milk together before adding the other ingredients. That way you can get it thinned before adding the yogurt. It mixes together better. Otherwise, very good recipe. I’ve never had overnight oats before but I’ve made it twice since I found your recipe!

Ridiculously good! I used fat free probiotic vanilla yogurt and only 1 tablespoon of peanut butter, and the full amount of cocoa powder. This feels like a cheat meal- very satisfying!!! Thanks for the great recipe!

IF you don’t mind the tart taste of Greek yogurt you can try it, but I like plain yogurt in this recipe best 🙂

By: Allison Chambers

Allison Chambers — Tue, 17 Feb 2015 21:32:11 +0000

This looks SO yummy!! I’m on the Trim Healthy Mama eating plan and was wondering if Greek yogurt might work? I’m thinking it may be too tart, but has anyone tried it? Maybe I can sweeten the greek yogurt before adding it in with extra trivia or something. I think I’m going to try it anyway! 🙂 Thanks for the recipe!

Sorry Jackie I haven’t ever tried that out! I do know the yogurt gives it a very nice and thicker consistency though so I probably wouldn’t leave it out!

Can we omit the yogurt and do extra milk, or will that make it too soggy? Trying not to run to the store. Lol!

I actually do use Quick Steel Cut Oats for this recipe. It IS better with Old-fashioned oats…but it’s pretty darn good with Steel Cut Oats as well. 🙂

Don’t mean to interject…I just didn’t want someone to miss this great recipe over a certain type of oat. 🙂
