Chocolate Overnight Oats

Ingredients

• 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)
• whipped cream
• chocolate syrup
• additional peanut butter

Instructions

1. 1

   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.

2. 2

   Pour in 2/3 cup of milk or water and give the oats a good stir.

3. 3

   Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.

4. 4

   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.

5. 5

   If desired, top with whipped cream and/or a drizzle of chocolate syrup.

6. 6

   These chocolate overnight oats keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
