Chocolate Overnight Oats
- 1/2 cup old fashioned or rolled oats 50g
- 2 tsp chia seeds 6g
- 2 Tbsp dark or Dutch-processed cocoa powder 10g
- 2 Tbsp packed light brown sugar 20g
- 1 Tbsp peanut butter - optional 15g
- 1 tsp vanilla extract - optional 4g
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips 45g
- 2/3 cup milk of your choice or water 160g
Optional Toppings:
- whipped cream
- chocolate syrup
- additional peanut butter
Add 1/2 cup rolled oats, 2 tsp chia seeds, 2 Tbsp dutch-processed cocoa, 2 Tbsp brown sugar, 1 Tbsp peanut butter, 1 tsp vanilla extract and 1/4 cup of mini chocolate chips.
Pour in 2/3 cup of milk or water and give the oats a good stir.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.
When you're ready to eat the oats, remove from the fridge. You’ll see that the oats absorbed a lot of the liquid, so you might want to add a little more water or milk of your choice before eating.
If desired, top with whipped cream and/or a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
These chocolate overnight oats keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
How To Make the Best Chocolate Overnight Oats:
- Make your oats in a sealable container like a mason jar!
- Feel free to double this recipe or make multiple jars to last the entire week.
- These chocolate overnight oats stay good in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- If you like your oatmeal a bit thinner, I suggest adding a splash of water or your favorite milk before eating.
- Top your overnight oats with chocolate shavings and whipped cream to take them to the next level.
