Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (45g)
  • 1/2 cup milk (120ml)
  • 1 tbsp Greek yogurt (15g)
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder (5g)
  • 1/4 tsp peppermint extract (1.25ml)
  • 1 tsp honey (5g)

Instructions

Preparation

  • In a mason jar or a bowl, combine the old-fashioned rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, cocoa powder, peppermint extract, and honey.
  • Stir everything together until well mixed.
  • Secure the lid on the mason jar or cover the bowl with plastic wrap.
  • Place it in the refrigerator overnight to allow the oats to soak and absorb all the creamy goodness.
  • In the morning, give it a good stir and garnish with crushed peppermint candies if desired.

Notes

These overnight oats can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. For variations, try adding vanilla extract, cinnamon, or use almond/oat milk and plant-based yogurt for a dairy-free version.
