Brownie Batter Overnight Oats

Brownie Batter Overnight Oats combine rolled oats with cocoa powder, protein powder, and almond milk to create a soak-and-chill breakfast option that thickens overnight. Topped with chocolate chips, walnuts, and optional peanut butter, this oatmeal offers a mix of creamy texture and crunchy accents reminiscent of brownie flavors. It provides a convenient make-ahead morning meal with protein and chocolate notes without baking.

Description

Brownie Batter Overnight Oats blends rolled oats with vanilla or chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, and sweetened vanilla almond milk that all steep together overnight. The oats absorb the liquid, creating a thick, creamy base infused with chocolate and vanilla notes. Stirred in maple syrup adds sweetness, balanced by a pinch of sea salt. Adding chocolate chips and chopped walnuts over the top provides varied texture, while optional peanut butter contributes rich, nutty flavor.

The preparation involves mixing the dry and wet ingredients, refrigerating overnight for the oats to soften, then stirring in additional liquid if needed the next morning to reach the preferred consistency. Serving this oat mixture chilled makes for a filling breakfast that can be assembled ahead of time, ideal for busy mornings.

The combination of protein powder with oats supplies extra protein, supporting satiety. Using almond milk keeps the dish dairy-free and lighter compared to traditional milk or cream, while cocoa powder and chocolate chips provide the distinct brownie-like taste and sweetness enjoyed in this no-heat recipe.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup rolled oats old fashioned
  • 2 coops (50 grams) protein powder vanilla or chocolate
  • 2 cups almond milk unsweetened vanilla
  • 2 Tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 1 Tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • pinch of sea salt
  • 2 Tablespoons chocolate chips I use Lily's dark chocolate chips
  • 2 Tablespoons walnuts chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon peanut butter optional

Instructions

  1. Add oats, protein powder, almond milk, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla and sea salt into a bowl or jar. Stir well to combine, until all the protein powder has dissolved. Seal container with a lid and place in the fridge overnight.
  2. Take the container out of the fridge the next morning and stir the mixture. You'll notice that the oats soak up a lot of the liquid so you may want to add a little more almond milk before serving.
  3. Portion overnight oats into two containers, top each with chocolate chips, chopped walnuts and peanut butter, if using. Enjoy.

Notes

  • Use certified gluten-free oats, vegan protein powder, and vegan chocolate chips to keep the recipe gluten-free and vegan.
