Coffee Overnight Oats
Servings: 3 ½ cup servings
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cups rolled oats
- ¾ cup iced coffee or cold brew
- ½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup vanilla Greek yogurt, optional for topping
- 3 tbsps chocolate, chopped
- 1 tablespoon simple syrup, optional for sweetness
Instructions
- Add the rolled oats, iced coffee, milk and vanilla extract to a mixing bowl and combine well. If you prefer the oats on the sweeter side, add in the simple syrup.
- Evenly distribute the oats into 3 containers, giving them a little room to expand.
- Cover and chill overnight in the refrigerator for approximately 10-12 hours.
- Prior to serving or enjoying, top the oats with Greek yogurt and shaved chocolate.
Notes
- Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days but do not add toppings until you are about to consume. They will get soggy otherwise.
- You can taste test the oats and coffee mixture and adjust the sweetness level. This version is not overly sweet and you get most of the sweetness from the Greek yogurt and chocolate.
- Feel free to use your favorite type of milk for this recipe: dairy, coconut, almond or oat milk all work well.
