Ingredients

1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats
3/4 cup unsweetened, plant-based milk of choice (I like soy)
1/3 cup plain vegan yogurt
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1 dash sea salt

Optional Toppings

1 tablespoon peanut butter
1 tablespoon chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate

Instructions

In a large mouth jar, add the oats, milk, yogurt, cocoa, maple syrup, chia and salt. Stir well with a spoon. Cover and chill overnight in the refrigerator.
Top oats with peanut butter, peanuts and chocolate to serve.

Notes

Chia Seeds: if you don't have chia seeds, you can use 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseeds instead. If you don't have either of those, just reduce the milk from 3/4 cup to 1/2 cup.
Heating: If you want to serve these overnight oats hot, just add to a bowl in the microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute until warmed.
Storage: store in an airtight container or jar for up to 5 days in the fridge. You can also freeze it for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight before serving.
