Ingredients
  

4 Weetabix biscuits

1 cup almond milk (or your preferred milk alternative)

2 tablespoons chocolate hazelnut spread (such as Nutella)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste for sweetness)

1 ripe banana, sliced

1/4 cup Greek yogurt (or a dairy-free yogurt of your choice)

2 tablespoons chopped hazelnuts

1 tablespoon chia seeds

A pinch of sea salt

Optional toppings: cocoa powder, additional banana slices, shredded coconut, or mixed berries

Instructions
 

Prep the Weetabix: Begin by crumbling the 4 Weetabix biscuits into small, bite-sized pieces in a large mixing bowl. This will create a base for your layered jars.

    Mix the Base: In a separate bowl, combine the almond milk, chocolate hazelnut spread, honey or maple syrup, and a pinch of sea salt. Whisk well until the ingredients are completely blended and smooth.

      Combine: Carefully pour the chocolate mixture over the crumbled Weetabix in the first bowl. Stir gently to ensure all the Weetabix pieces are well coated. Add the chia seeds and mix until incorporated; this will enhance the creaminess and add a pleasant texture.

        Layer: In two jars or individual containers, create layers with the mixture. Start by adding a generous layer of the Weetabix blend. Next, place a few banana slices on top, followed by a spoonful of Greek yogurt and a sprinkle of chopped hazelnuts. Repeat this layering process until the jars are filled, finishing with a final dollop of yogurt on top.

          Chill: Tightly seal the jars with their lids and refrigerate them overnight (or for a minimum of 4 hours) to let the flavors meld together and to soften the Weetabix.

            Serve & Enjoy: When you’re ready to enjoy your delicious breakfast, give the jars a gentle stir to mix the layers slightly. Top with your choice of optional toppings like cocoa powder, extra banana slices, shredded coconut, or seasonal berries for an added burst of flavor and texture. Dig in immediately!
