Overnight oats are a simple yet ingenious way to prepare a wholesome breakfast in advance. The concept is straightforward: you combine oats with liquid (usually milk or a dairy alternative) and let them soak overnight in the refrigerator. This soaking process allows the oats to absorb the liquid, soften, and develop a creamy texture without the need for cooking.

Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

2 cups almond milk (or milk of choice)

2 tablespoons unsweetened cacao powder

1 tablespoon chia seeds

2 tablespoons maple syrup (or honey)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of sea salt

1/4 cup Greek yogurt (optional for creaminess)

Toppings: sliced bananas, chopped nuts (like walnuts or almonds), dark chocolate chips, and shredded coconut

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, cacao powder, chia seeds, sea salt, and maple syrup. Mix well until all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

    Pour in the almond milk and vanilla extract. Stir until thoroughly combined. If using Greek yogurt, gently fold it in now for added creaminess.

      Divide the mixture evenly among 2-4 glass containers or mason jars with lids. Seal the containers tightly.

        Refrigerate the jars overnight (or for at least 4 hours) to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and swell.

          In the morning, give the oats a good stir. Top with your choice of sliced bananas, chopped nuts, dark chocolate chips, and shredded coconut for an irresistible finish.

            Enjoy your Choco-Power Overnight Oats cold or warm them slightly if preferred!
