Chocolate Cherry Overnight Oats

Chocolate Cherry Overnight Oats

Breakfast

Do you like to have something sweet in the morning but do you want to keep it healthy and nourishing as well? These Chocolate Cherry Overnight Oats taste just like dessert for breakfast and they’re really filling too. I love the combination of the soft creamy oats with the crunchy granola and the sweet & sour flavor of the cherries against the bitterness of the chocolate. If you’re a fan of dark chocolate, I think you’ll love this breakfast!

Chocolate Cherry Overnight Oats

SERVES: 1 person

EQUIPMENT: mason jar (to take your oatmeal with you on the go)

INGREDIENTS:

¾ cup non-dairy milk (I used unsweetened rice coconut milk)
1 ½ tablespoon cacao powder
1 tablespoon chia seeds
½ tablespoon maple syrup, or more to taste
Pinch of sea salt
½ cup oats

½ cup cherries, fresh or frozen and thawed
Toppings: toasted almond flakes, shredded coconut & ALL GOOD Vanilla Coconut Granola

DIRECTIONS:

1. Combine the milk with the cacao powder, chia seeds, maple syrup and sea salt in a glass jar. Close the lid and shake well.
2. Add the oats, close the lid and shake again.
3. Put the oats in the refrigerator overnight so they can absorb the chocolate milk.
4. Top the overnight oats with the thawed cherries, toasted almond flakes, shredded coconut and your favorite crunchy granola (I used ALL GOOD Vanilla Coconut Granola) right before serving. Almond butter makes a great topping too!
