Macros are for one serving as written. Make gives you more servings of the same size; Portion resizes one serving and moves the macros with it.
Ingredients
- 60g (2/3 cup) rolled oats, dry
- 150g (2/3 cup) Greek yogurt, 0%
- 120ml (1/2 cup) skimmed milk
- 30g (1 scoop) whey protein, vanilla
- 80g (2/3 cup) mixed berries
- 16g (1 tbsp) peanut butter
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon, pinch of salt
7 ingredients, each with the gram weight the macros above were computed from.
Method
- Stir the whey into the milk first, on its own, until there are no lumps. Powder added to the oats never fully disperses and you find dry pockets in the morning.
- Add the yogurt, cinnamon and salt to the milk and whisk smooth.
- Fold in the oats. The mix should look slightly too wet - the oats take up more overnight than you expect.
- Spoon into a jar, leaving 2cm / 1in at the top for the fruit.
- Press the surface flat and cover. Air pockets go dry and chalky.
- Refrigerate at least 6 hours, ideally overnight.
- Top with the berries and peanut butter in the morning, not the night before - berries added early bleed and turn the whole jar purple.

MacroChef Plus is bought in the iPhone app, which is on its way to the App Store. The free week and the subscription are handled by the App Store, so they are cancelled there too.
How Plus worksTip: the pinch of salt is doing more work than the cinnamon. Without it, protein oats taste flat no matter how much sweetener goes in.
