The Required Ingredients
Using these ingredients you can quickly make your overnight oats with chocolate healthy and mouth-watering
- Oats
I used old-fashioned roll oats but you can use any kind of oats like steel-cut, quick-cooking oats but their soaking time may get different.
- Chia seeds
These little seeds are full of package; give your rolled oats a thick, creamy texture plus give many health benefits.
- Cacao powder
You can also use cocoa powder as it will enhance the chocolaty color and taste of your chocolate overnight oats.
- Non-dairy milk
You can use any kind of milk like cashew, oats, hemp, almond, coconut, soy, or macadamia nut milk. I used non-dairy milk in this recipe.
- Yogurt
Greek or coconut yogurt either can be used for this recipe. If you want to make vegan oats, you can use coconut or any other non-dairy yogurt
- Vanilla extract
It will give your oats a perfectly sweet taste. Use maple syrup or honey if not vegan
- Dark chocolate chips- or chopped dark sugar-free chocolate
if you want to make these oats vegan, use dairy-free chocolate chips.

You can also add some extra toppings to make your meal more healthy and tasty. Add chopped nuts, berries, and fresh fruit pieces.
