Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- ½ cup rolled oats
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 1 cup milk (any kind, such as dairy, almond, or oat milk)
- 1 tbsp peanut butter
- 1–2 tsp honey or maple syrup
- 1 tbsp chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a jar or bowl, mix the rolled oats, chia seeds, cocoa powder, and chocolate protein powder thoroughly to ensure even distribution of flavors and nutrients.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the milk, then add the peanut butter and honey or maple syrup. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are fully combined into a uniform mixture.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the jar or bowl and place it in the refrigerator overnight or for at least 4 hours, allowing the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquids and flavors to meld.
- Add Toppings and Serve: Before serving, top the oats with chocolate chips if desired for extra texture and chocolate flavor. Enjoy chilled for a creamy, satisfying breakfast.
Notes
- Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of honey or maple syrup according to your taste preference.
- For extra creaminess and added protein, stir in some Greek yogurt before refrigerating.
- Substitute peanut butter with almond butter or other nut butters for a different flavor profile or to accommodate allergies.
