Overnight Oats


Almost all of you know I have a weird obsession with all things oats. I also have a ridiculous addiction to overnight oats. While sometimes I prefer the warm taste and feel of regular oatmeal, I love the chewy and rich taste of overnight oats. You can really play around with the flavors, too. For this recipe, I will be giving you info for Chocolate Apple Pie Overnight Oats!

YOU WILL NEED:

1/2 cup raw oats
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 container of Yoplait FatFree Greek Yogurt, Apple Pie Flavored (or whatever flavor you want!)
1tsp vanilla extract
1 tbs unsweetened cocoa powder

DIRECTIONS:

Place everything in a container or resealable jar. SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE!
Allow to sit overnight, preferably. A few hours will do, just fine. NOM!

*I also like to add bananas in mine so the bananas can soak in the mix too, but you don't always have to!

If you only have an hour to spare, cut out the greek yogurt, keep everything else the same. You will need to add a sweetener like Splenda or Stevia if you want that sweet taste, though. Otherwise, it'll just be unsweetened bitter chocolatey tasting. However, some people like that!

In joy, enjoy!
