Creamy Greek yogurt and chia seeds add thickness and protein, while cocoa powder and dark chocolate create an indulgent brownie batter taste that’s ready to enjoy straight from the fridge.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Oats:

  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt (for creaminess)
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds (for thickness)
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup or honey

For the Chocolate Boost:

  • 1 tbsp melted dark chocolate
  • 1 tbsp chocolate chips (for extra fudginess)

For Toppings (Optional but Delicious!):

  • Drizzle of melted chocolate
  • Extra chocolate chips
  • Dusting of cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. Melt the Chocolate: In a small bowl, melt 1 tablespoon of dark chocolate until smooth and glossy. This adds a rich, fudgy depth to the oats.
  2. Mix the Oats Base: In a mason jar or airtight container, combine rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and the melted dark chocolate. Stir thoroughly to blend all ingredients evenly.
  3. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in 1 tablespoon of chocolate chips to incorporate extra bursts of fudgy chocolate goodness throughout the oats.
  4. Cover & Chill Overnight: Seal the jar or container tightly and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours. This allows the oats to absorb the liquid, soften, and meld all the flavors together perfectly.
  5. Add Toppings & Serve: In the morning, remove the oats from the fridge, then drizzle with additional melted chocolate, sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top, and lightly dust with cocoa powder if desired. Enjoy chilled for a quick, decadent breakfast treat.

Notes

  • You can use any type of milk you prefer, such as almond, oat, or cow’s milk.
  • For a vegan version, use maple syrup instead of honey and plant-based yogurt.
  • The oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, making it perfect for meal prepping.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup or honey according to taste.
  • If you like a thicker consistency, add an extra tablespoon of chia seeds.
