Description

This Cookie Dough Overnight Oats recipe is an easy, no-cook breakfast that’s creamy, nutritious, and reminiscent of your favorite cookie dough treat. Combining rolled oats with chia seeds, Greek yogurt, almond butter, and mini chocolate chips, it offers a deliciously indulgent start to your day with a healthy twist. Simply mix the ingredients, refrigerate overnight, and enjoy a ready-to-eat, satisfying meal by morning.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (optional for extra creaminess)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon almond butter or peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Combine dry ingredients: In a mixing bowl, mix the rolled oats, chia seeds, and mini chocolate chips thoroughly to distribute them evenly.
  2. Add wet ingredients: Pour in the milk, Greek yogurt (if using), maple syrup or honey, vanilla extract, and almond or peanut butter into the bowl with the dry ingredients.
  3. Mix thoroughly: Stir all the ingredients together until well combined, ensuring the oats and chia seeds are fully submerged in the liquid for proper soaking.
  4. Transfer to container: Pour the mixture into a mason jar or any airtight container suitable for refrigeration.
  5. Refrigerate overnight: Cover the container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, allowing the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
  6. Serve and enjoy: In the morning, stir the oats and add a splash of milk if the texture is too thick. Enjoy directly from the jar or serve in a bowl.

Notes

  • For a creamier texture, use Greek yogurt; omit for a lighter version.
  • Substitute almond butter with peanut butter or any nut butter of your choice.
  • Use maple syrup to keep the recipe vegan instead of honey.
  • Add fresh fruit toppings like sliced bananas or berries for extra flavor and nutrition.
  • Make several jars in advance for quick grab-and-go breakfasts throughout the week.
