Delicious and easy Brownie Overnight Oats combine rolled oats, cocoa powder, chia seeds, and creamy yogurt for a nutritious and indulgent breakfast that tastes like a healthy dessert. This no-cook recipe is perfect for busy mornings and can be customized with your favorite toppings.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • ½ cup almond milk (or dairy milk or oat milk)
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt)
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup (adjust 1-2 tbsp or preferred sweetener)
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp chocolate chips (optional, or 2 tbsp)

Optional Toppings

  • Nut butter
  • Fresh berries
  • Cacao nibs
  • Chopped nuts

Instructions

  1. Combine dry ingredients: In a jar or bowl, add the rolled oats, unsweetened cocoa powder, and chia seeds to create the base for your brownie overnight oats.
  2. Add wet ingredients: Pour in the almond milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract over the dry ingredients.
  3. Mix thoroughly: Stir well until everything is fully combined and no dry cocoa powder remains, ensuring an even chocolate flavor.
  4. Fold in chocolate chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips if using, for added texture and chocolate bursts.
  5. Chill the mixture: Cover the jar or bowl and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or preferably overnight to allow the oats and chia seeds to soften and absorb flavors.
  6. Serve and garnish: Stir the oats before serving, then add your choice of toppings such as nut butter, fresh berries, cacao nibs, or chopped nuts for extra flavor and nutrition.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond milk with any milk of your choice including dairy or oat milk.
  • For a vegan version, use dairy-free yogurt and maple syrup.
  • Increase the maple syrup quantity if you prefer a sweeter taste.
  • Make sure to chill for at least 6 hours for the best texture, but overnight yields superior creaminess.
  • Optional toppings add variety and nutritional benefits; feel free to mix and match.
