Description
Y’all, if you’re lookin’ for a breakfast that tastes like a coffeehouse treat but eats like a hearty morning hug, these Nutty Mocha Crunch Overnight Oats are it. Packed with flavor, protein, and that little coffee kick—this one’s a keeper for busy mornings or lazy weekends.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- ¾ cup milk of choice (whole, almond, oat—whatever suits your folks)
- ¼ cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt (adds creaminess, trust me)
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey (go with your gut)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (they plump up real nice)
- 2 tablespoons chopped toasted hazelnuts or almonds
- 1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips (for that mocha crunch!)
- A pinch of salt
- Optional: Whipped cream or a spoonful of nut butter on top
Instructions
- Brew your coffee strong, baby. Let it cool while you prep the rest—you’re lookin’ for bold flavor here.
- Grab yourself a good jar or airtight container. In it, mix your oats, milk, cooled coffee, Greek yogurt, cocoa powder, maple syrup, chia seeds, and just a pinch of salt. Stir it all up ’til it’s lookin’ like a mocha milkshake base.
- Fold in half the chopped nuts and a few of those chocolate chips. Save the rest for topping—presentation matters, even at the breakfast table!
- Seal it up tight and pop it in the fridge overnight. At least 6 hours, but overnight is best. While you sleep, magic happens.
- In the morning, give it a stir and top with the rest of those nuts and chocolate chips. Maybe a little whipped cream or almond butter if you’re feelin’ fancy.
