Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Ensure you have all the necessary ingredients measured out accurately.
- In a medium-sized bowl or a mason jar, combine 1/2 cup (40g) of multi-grain oatmeal, 1/2 tbsp (6g) of chia seeds, and 1 scoop (30g) of whey protein powder.
- Add 1 tsp (1.79g) of dry cocoa powder to the bowl or jar with the dry ingredients.
- Pour 2/3 cup (160g) of soy milk into the bowl or jar.
- Add 1 tsp (7g) of maple syrup for sweetness.
- Stir all the ingredients together until they are well combined. Make sure there are no lumps of protein powder or cocoa powder.
- Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap, or simply seal the mason jar.
- Place in the refrigerator and let it sit overnight, or for at least 4-6 hours.
- In the morning, give the overnight oats a good stir.
- If desired, you can add extra toppings such as fresh fruits, nuts, or additional sweeteners.
- Serve your chocolate overnight oats cold or at room temperature.
Tips:
- Mix the ingredients well to ensure even distribution of flavors and textures.
- Let the oats sit in the refrigerator for at least 6-8 hours to achieve the perfect consistency.
- Use a mason jar or airtight container to store the oats overnight, ensuring they stay fresh.
- If you prefer a thicker consistency, reduce the amount of soy milk or add more chia seeds.
- For extra sweetness, drizzle a bit more maple syrup before serving.
- Feel free to experiment with different types of milk or protein powder based on your dietary preferences.
Enjoy your ready-to-eat chocolate overnight oats in the morning, topped with fresh berries, nuts, or any of your favorite toppings. This quick and convenient breakfast choice is not only tasty but also provides a healthy kick-start to your day.
