Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon honey

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a jar or bowl, add the rolled oats, cocoa powder, milk, peanut butter, and honey. Stir well until all ingredients are fully combined and the peanut butter is evenly distributed.
  2. Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the container and place it in the refrigerator. Allow the oats to soak for at least 6-8 hours or overnight to absorb the liquids and soften.
  3. Serve: In the morning, give the oats a good stir. You can enjoy it cold or warm it slightly if preferred. Optionally, top with fresh fruit or nuts for added texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use rolled oats for the best texture; instant oats may become too mushy.
  • Adjust sweetness by modifying the amount of honey to your taste.
  • For a vegan version, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
  • Use any milk of your choice: cow’s milk, almond milk, soy milk, or oat milk all work well.
  • Peanut butter can be creamy or crunchy depending on your preference.
