Toppings (optional)
- 1 tablespoon cacao nibs
- 1 tbsp roasted peanuts
In a medium bowl, combine the milk, peanut butter, and maple syrup. Whisk together until well incorporated. You should have a smooth, thick liquid.
In a separate bowl combine the rolled oats, Cacao Bliss, cacao nibs, and chia seeds. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir until the oats are evenly hydrated.
Divide oats between four 6-ounce jars. Securely fasten the lids and refrigerate at least 6 ho4rs or overnight. Top with toppings of choice and go!
Serving and Storing - Let your oats set up for at least 6 hours before serving. They are best left to sit overnight. Serve them with cacao nibs and peanuts for some textural contrast. Store the oats in four separate serving sizes to be enjoyed throughout the week. Overnight oats should be eaten within 4 days.
Recipe Tips - Use extra-thick old fashioned oats. You want oats that will keep their shape overnight so that you have a full-bodied texture. If you are gluten-free, make sure to look for a gluten-free thick cut.
Variations - If you want, you can swap in steel-cut oats for old fashioned oats. To do that, you’ll want to double the liquid in this recipe.
