Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups rolled oats (slow or quick cook – gluten free if needed)
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 3 tbsp vegan chocolate chips (or cacao nibs)
  • 1 scoop your favourite vegan protein powder

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp peanut or almond butter
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups dairy free milk

Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, chia seeds, vegan chocolate chips, and vegan protein powder. Stir these dry ingredients together thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the peanut or almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and dairy free milk. Mix everything well until the mixture is uniformly combined and creamy.
  3. Divide and Store: Transfer the mixture into bowls or storage containers, cover them with lids or plastic wrap.
  4. Refrigerate Overnight: Place the covered containers in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, allowing the oats and chia seeds to soak and soften into a pudding-like consistency.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: In the morning, give the oats a stir and enjoy your cookie dough flavored overnight oats cold. You can add extra toppings like fresh fruit or nuts if desired.

Notes

  • Use gluten free oats to make this recipe gluten free.
  • Maple syrup can be substituted with agave syrup or honey if not strictly vegan.
  • For extra creaminess, use thicker dairy free milk alternatives like oat or cashew milk.
  • Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup.
  • Overnight oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Adding protein powder boosts the nutritional content, but it’s optional.
