Directions

Finely mash 2 bananas in a large bowl until very smooth. Stir in almond milk, oats, yogurt, walnuts, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla and cinnamon until evenly combined. Cover and refrigerate until thickened, 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Stir chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on Medium, stopping to stir every 20 seconds, until melted, about 45 seconds to 1 minute.

Divide the oat mixture among 4 (8-ounce) jars (about 1/2 cup each). Thinly slice the remaining banana. Layer half of the banana slices over the oat mixture in each jar, then top each with the remaining oat mixture; finish with the remaining banana slices. Spoon about 2 teaspoons of the melted chocolate chip mixture over each, tilting the jar to cover the entire surface.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)

  • Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
