Maple, Peanut Butter, Banana Overnight Oats

I haven't been having such great luck at trying different overnight oatmeal recipes until I found this one. Again I don't have a picture - I ate it before I could get a picture.

Maple Peanut Butter Banana Overnight Oats

Serves: 1

1/4 cup oats (I used Bob's Red Mill, Gluten-Free Quick Oats)
1 tbsp chia seeds 
1 tsp cinnamon
3/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
A splash of vanilla
1/2 ripe banana, slice (I used a whole one)
1 tbsp natural peanut butter (I used Skippy natural creamy)
1 tsp. maple syrup
Small handful of pecans (I didn't use these)

Instructions:
  1. In a small jar, combine oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, almond milk, and vanilla. Cover and chill in refrigerator overnight, at least 8 hours.
  2. Before serving, microwave sliced bananas and peanut butter in a small microwave-safe bowl for 20 seconds, or until bananas are soft and peanut butter is melted. Add to chilled oats. 
  3. Drizzle in maple syrup and top with pecans; stir until combined. Enjoy!
