A quick and easy overnight oats recipe combining creamy peanut butter and melty chocolate chips for a satisfying and indulgent breakfast without the guilt.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (90g) rolled oats (old-fashioned)
  • 1 cup (240ml) milk (dairy or plant-based, unsweetened almond milk preferred)
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter (smooth or chunky, natural preferred)
  • ½ cup (120g) Greek yogurt (dairy or dairy-free)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup (about 45g) mini chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Combine 1 cup rolled oats and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl or jar; stir to distribute salt evenly.
  2. Add 1 cup milk and ½ cup Greek yogurt; stir gently until creamy and smooth.
  3. Mix in 2 tablespoons peanut butter and 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup; stir thoroughly to break up clumps.
  4. Add ½ teaspoon vanilla extract and stir to combine.
  5. Fold in ¼ cup mini chocolate chips gently to distribute without melting.
  6. Seal the container and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to let oats soak and flavors meld.
  7. In the morning, stir the oats well; add a splash of milk if too thick. Serve cold or warm gently in the microwave for 30-45 seconds if desired.

Notes

Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture; blend peanut butter thoroughly with milk and yogurt to avoid clumps; fold in mini chocolate chips to soften but not melt; soak at least 6 hours, ideally 8-10 hours; add a pinch of salt to balance sweetness; can add nuts or seeds in the morning for crunch; store leftovers in fridge up to 3 days; avoid freezing.
