Ingredients
Scale
Overnight Oats Base
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 cup milk (any kind: dairy or plant-based)
Instructions
Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl or jar, thoroughly mix the rolled oats, cocoa powder, and milk until well combined and the cocoa powder is evenly distributed.
Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the mixture and place it in the refrigerator. Allow it to soak overnight, or for at least 6-8 hours, so the oats absorb the liquid and soften.
Notes
Use any type of milk, such as almond, oat, soy, or cow’s milk, according to your preference.
For added sweetness, consider stirring in a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup before refrigerating.
Add toppings like fresh berries, nuts, or chocolate chips in the morning for extra texture and flavor.
This recipe is naturally gluten-free if you use certified gluten-free oats.
