Rolled oats are soaked in milk, cacao powder, chia seeds and honey overnight for a creamy, chocolate oatmeal that is&nbsp;a healthy breakfast. They can be prepared ahead of time and you can meal prep enough for&nbsp;the whole week.

Chocolate Overnight Oats

rolled oats ((see note))

tbsp cacao powder ((see note))

-2 tbsp honey (or

tbsp chia seeds (optional)

In a glass jar, add all ingredients. (To determine the amount of milk to use, I found that 1/2 cup was just the right amount to cover and soften all the oats, but with very little liquid leftover the next morning. I like my oats this way but if you prefer runnier oats with some liquid leftover, I suggest adding 2/3 cup milk.) Mix everything together with a spoon until combined. You can taste and add more sweetener as needed. Since I add fresh fruit to mine in the morning, I prefer to keep the sugar level low.

Seal jar and store in refrigerator for at least a few hours, but preferably overnight. Eat the next morning as is or with fresh fruit. You can also prepare up to a week's worth ahead of time.

Overnight Oats

milk almond

chia seeds or flax seeds

berries ((strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, etc.))

instant coffee

walnuts,

greek yogurt ((or coconut yogurt

coconut yogurt

Nutella

hazelnuts

raw cacao nibs ((or chocolate chips))

apple,

peanut butter ((natural

peanuts

fruit, optional ((bananas, raspberries, blueberries))

mango

banana

coconut flakes

Place the rolled oats and chia seeds in an 8oz glass jar or container and stir with a spoon.

Add the sweetener of your choice (if required) and the milk, and mix well.

Cover the container with a lid or wrap and place in the fridge for at least 2 hours (but overnight gives a better texture).

The next day, open the container and add your desired toppings (see options below). 

BASE RECIPE

For this berry version, make sure to add honey to the base recipe the night before. I prefer to use oat milk, but you can use any milk you like.

The next day, add the berries on top. If you want to eat this warm, make sure you add the berries after warming the oats.

DELICIOUS BERRY OVERNIGHT OATS

Add the instant coffee with the rolled oats and chia seeds and mix well, before adding the maple syrup and the liquid (almond milk is what we prefer).Instead of instant coffee, you can add a shot of espresso and a bit less milk.

The next day, top with greek yogurt and walnuts.

COFFEE &amp; WALNUT OVERNIGHT OATS

Add the cinnamon with the rolled oats and chia seeds and mix well, before adding the maple syrup and milk of your choice.

If you plan to warm this up and would like more of an apple pie taste, add the apples on top of the oats as soon as you take them out of the fridge.

Warm oats and apples in the microwave for 45-60 seconds. I don&#x27;t normally recommend heating up the fruit, but warm apples are delicious!

APPLE PIE OVERNIGHT OATS

Add the cocoa powder with the rolled oats and chia seeds and mix well, before adding the maple syrup and milk of your choice.

The next day, top it with some Nutella (use my recipe for a vegan, healthy option), coconut yogurt, some crunchy toasted hazelnuts, and cacao nibs.

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE OVERNIGHT OATS

Mix the base recipe.

The next day, top with peanut butter, nuts, and raw cacao nibs. If you want, add some fresh fruits as well.

PEANUT BUTTER OVERNIGHT OATS

Mix the base recipe. For optimum &quot;piña colada&quot; taste, make sure to use coconut milk. If you are not planning to warm this up, add 1 tablespoon of coconut yogurt to the base recipe before putting it in the fridge. This will create a creamier end result.

The next day, top with mango slices, banana slices, the remaining coconut yogurt, and some coconut flakes.

TROPICAL &quot;VIRGIN PINA COLADA&quot; OVERNIGHT OATS
