Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a bowl, combine 1 cup of Fruity Pebbles with 1 cup of milk. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to infuse flavor.
  2. Set a fine-mesh strainer over a clean bowl. Pour the cereal mixture into the strainer to separate the milk from the cereal. Discard the cereal.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix the cereal-infused milk with rolled oats, chia seeds, Greek yogurt, vanilla protein powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until combined.
  4. Transfer the mixture into an airtight container, seal and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
