German Chocolate Overnight Oats
Who says breakfast has to be boring? These German Chocolate Overnight Oats will wake up your taste buds and get you started on the day with a whopping 35g of protein!
Equipment
- 1 Mason jar
- 1 Spatula
- 1 Mixing bowl
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup old-fashioned oats
- ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk
- ⅓ cup Greek vanilla yogurt (I used Two Good)
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder (I used Brownie Batter from Clean Simple Eats - code TAMI saves you $$)
- ½ tbsp shredded unsweetened coconut
- 1 tbsp mini chocolate chips
- 1 tsp cocoa powder
- ¼ tsp almond extract (can omit if you prefer)
- ½ tbsp slivered almonds
Instructions
- Add your unsweetened almond milk and a scoop of protein powder to the bottom of your mason jar, secure the top on tightly and give it a vigorous shake to mix the protein powder and milk together.
- Remove the lid and add the oats, yogurt, shredded coconut, cocoa powder, slivered almonds, almond extract, and mini chocolate chips.
- Take a small spatula or spoon and mix the ingredients together until well combined. If your jar has space, you can put the lid on it and shake it up instead.
- Place the lid on your jar and put it in the fridge for at least 2 hours before eating, but overnight is usually better.
- When you’re ready to eat, remove the lid, give it a good stir, add a couple more chocolate chips and coconut shreds if you’d like, and enjoy!
Notes
To make this recipe vegan, swap your yogurt, protein powder, and chocolate chips with a vegan alternative. Plan ahead and make 3-4 servings at a time to enjoy for multiple days.
