Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned)
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice
  • 1 1/2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp shelled pistachios, roughly chopped (plus more for topping)
  • 1-2 tsp maple syrup (or sweetener of choice)
  • 1 tsp chia seeds (optional)
  • pinch of sea salt

Equipment

  • mason jar or airtight container
  • Spoon

Method
 

  1. Add oats, milk, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, chopped pistachios, chia seeds (if using), maple syrup, and a pinch of salt to a jar or container with a lid.
  2. Break up any cocoa powder clumps with your spoon and stir thoroughly, scraping the bottom to ensure the cocoa is fully incorporated.
  3. Seal the container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best texture.
  4. Stir again before eating. Add extra milk if needed and top with additional pistachios or maple syrup if desired.

Notes

These overnight oats can be eaten cold straight from the fridge or warmed in the microwave for 60–90 seconds. Texture can be adjusted with additional milk or chia seeds.
