Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • ½ cup almond milk, dairy milk, or oat milk
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt or dairy-free yogurt
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup (adjust to 1-2 tbsp or preferred sweetener)
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp chocolate chips or 2 tbsp (optional)

Optional Toppings

  • Nut butter
  • Fresh berries
  • Cacao nibs
  • Chopped nuts

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a jar or bowl, add the rolled oats, unsweetened cocoa powder, and chia seeds. This forms the flavorful base of your brownie oats.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the almond milk (or your choice of milk), Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. These enrich the texture and sweetness.
  3. Mix Thoroughly: Stir well until all ingredients are fully combined and no dry cocoa powder remains, ensuring a smooth, even mixture.
  4. Incorporate Chocolate Chips: Fold in the chocolate chips gently if using, distributing them evenly throughout the oats.
  5. Chill Overnight: Cover the jar or bowl and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb liquids and thicken.
  6. Serve with Toppings: Before serving, stir the oats to combine. Add your desired optional toppings like nut butter, fresh berries, cacao nibs, or chopped nuts for extra flavor and texture.
