Ingredients
- ½ cup rolled oats
- ¾ cup almond milk unsweetened
- 1 Tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup more to taste if desired
- pinch salt
- ½ teaspoon vanilla optional
Instructions
- Add oats, almond milk, cocoa powder, maple syrup, chia seeds, vanilla and salt into a bowl or mason jar. Stir well to combine. Seal the container with a lid and place in the fridge overnight.
- 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.
- Top each with chocolate chips and nut butter, if using and enjoy!

Notes
- Adding chocolate protein powder before refrigerating increases protein but requires extra almond milk to keep consistency.
- Soak oats overnight to achieve a creamy texture without cooking.
- Top with chocolate chips or nut butter for added richness and texture.
