Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 1 cup milk (any type, dairy or plant-based)
  • 1/3 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a bowl or jar, add the rolled oats, cocoa powder, milk, Greek yogurt, and maple syrup. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly combined and the cocoa powder is fully incorporated.
  2. Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the container and place it in the refrigerator overnight, or for at least 6 hours. This allows the oats to absorb the liquid and soften to a creamy consistency.
  3. Serve Cold: In the morning, give the oats a good stir. Serve chilled directly from the refrigerator. Optionally, you can add toppings like nuts, berries, or a drizzle of extra maple syrup.

Notes

  • You can substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt for a vegan option.
  • Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup according to taste.
  • For a thicker texture, reduce the milk slightly or increase the oats.
  • Add-ins like chocolate chips or nuts can enhance texture and flavor.
  • This recipe is best enjoyed within 2 days of preparation for optimal freshness.
