This easy no-cook recipe combines creamy peanut butter with rich cocoa powder for a satisfying breakfast that you can prepare the night before. Perfect for a quick, healthy start to your day.

  • Total Time: 2 hours 10 minutes (including chilling time)
  • Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 2 tablespoons creamy all-natural peanut butter

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 1 cup gluten free old-fashioned oats
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Combine wet ingredients: Add the Greek yogurt, almond milk, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and peanut butter to a mixing bowl. Whisk together until well combined to create a smooth, creamy base.
  2. Add dry ingredients: Mix in the cocoa powder, oats, chia seeds, and salt with the wet ingredients. Stir thoroughly until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  3. Transfer to container: Pour the mixture into a large wide-mouthed glass container with a lid, such as a Weck jar or mason jar, ensuring the lid can close tightly.
  4. Refrigerate overnight: Cover the container and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, allowing the oats and chia seeds to soak and thicken the mixture.
  5. Serve and garnish: Once chilled, remove from the refrigerator and stir the oats. Separate into two serving bowls or jars. Optionally, add a splash of almond milk to thin if desired. Top with extra peanut butter, fresh berries, and hemp or chia seeds for added texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use gluten-free oats to keep this recipe gluten-free.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying maple syrup or honey amount.
  • Soaking for at least 2 hours is essential, but overnight yields the best texture.
  • Add fresh fruits like berries or banana slices for extra nutrition and flavor.
  • For a vegan option, use maple syrup instead of honey and ensure the yogurt is plant-based.
