Ingredients
Overnight Oats Mixture
- 1/4 cup old fashioned oats
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- 1/3 cup Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for vegan option)
- 1/4 cup milk (non-dairy milk preferred for vegan option)
- 2 tsp honey (or maple syrup for vegan option, extra if sweeter desired)
- 1/4 cup raspberries (washed)
White Chocolate Topping
- 1 tbsp white chocolate chips (or 1-2 large squares of white chocolate)
- 1/2 tsp coconut oil (to thin out the chocolate)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a mason jar or serving cup, mix together the oats, chia seeds, Greek yogurt, milk, honey, and raspberries. If the mixture appears too thin, allow it to sit at room temperature or in the fridge for 5-10 minutes to thicken slightly before proceeding.
- Melt White Chocolate: Place the white chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave-safe small bowl and melt together carefully in the microwave, stirring intermittently until smooth.
- Top Oats with Chocolate: Pour the melted white chocolate over the slightly set overnight oats, gently tilting the jar or cup to evenly cover the top layer with chocolate.
- Chill and Set: Cover the jar with a lid or the serving cup with plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hours or overnight to chill and allow flavors to meld.
- Serve: Before eating, optionally top with extra fresh raspberries. Enjoy your creamy, sweet, and nutritious overnight oats as a breakfast or snack.
Notes
- Use coconut yogurt and non-dairy milk with maple syrup to make this recipe completely vegan.
- The coconut oil helps to thin the white chocolate for easy pouring; if omitted, white chocolate may harden quickly on top.
- Overnight soaking allows oats and chia seeds to soften, improving texture and digestibility.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more honey or maple syrup according to taste.
- For added texture, sprinkle nuts or seeds on top before serving if desired.
