Ingredients

Scale

Overnight Oats Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 1 tablespoon sweetener (such as maple syrup, honey, or agave)

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a bowl or jar, add the oats, cocoa powder, milk, and sweetener. Stir well until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed and the cocoa powder is evenly distributed.
  2. Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the bowl or seal the jar and place it in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight. This allows the oats to absorb the liquid and soften, creating a creamy, pudding-like texture.
  3. Serve: In the morning, stir the oats once more before eating. Optionally, add toppings such as fresh fruit, nuts, or chocolate chips for added flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Use any type of milk you prefer, including dairy, almond, soy, or oat milk.
  • Adjust the sweetness to your taste by varying the amount or type of sweetener.
  • For extra indulgence, add a pinch of cinnamon or a splash of vanilla extract.
  • Store refrigerated for up to 3 days for easy grab-and-go breakfasts.
