Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 1/2 cups almond milk (or any milk of choice)
- 3 tbsp dark cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp maple syrup or honey
- A pinch of salt
Add-ins & Toppings
- 1/2 cup fresh raspberries (plus a few for garnish)
- 1/4 cup dark chocolate chunks or chips
Instructions
- Mix Liquid Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the almond milk, dark cocoa powder, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt until smooth and well combined.
- Add Oats: Gently fold in the rolled oats, ensuring they are completely submerged in the cocoa mixture for even soaking.
- Incorporate Chocolate and Raspberries: Add the dark chocolate chunks and fresh raspberries to the mixture, reserving a few raspberries and chocolate pieces for garnish later.
- Transfer and Refrigerate: Pour the oats mixture into two jars or bowls and cover them tightly. Let the oats soak and set in the refrigerator overnight for at least 8 hours.
- Final Stir and Adjust: In the morning, take out the jars and give the oats a gentle stir. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash more milk to loosen the consistency.
- Garnish and Serve: Top with the reserved fresh raspberries and some chocolate shavings or chunks before enjoying your delicious chocolatey raspberry overnight oats.
Notes
- Use dark chocolate with 70% cocoa or higher to intensify the chocolate flavor.
- Add a dollop of yogurt for extra creaminess and tang.
- Top with toasted hazelnuts or almonds for added crunch and texture.
- If you prefer a sweeter taste, adjust the maple syrup or honey amount to your liking.
- Overnight oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
