Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp peanut butter
- 1 tbsp maple syrup or honey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp mini chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp chia seeds

- Fold in chocolate chips: Gently fold the mini chocolate chips into the oat mixture to distribute them evenly without melting.
- Chill overnight: Cover the jar or bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight or for at least 6 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
