Double chocolate overnight oats & chia breakfast.
A start to the day, so pretty and healthy makes the entire day energetic and productive. Only if words were enough to describe how delicious a breakfast could be. This is a great grab and go option for all those busy mornings. It is also perfect as weekdays meal prep in advance.
I am too happy making this one in anticipation of my next day’s delicious breakfast. Yeah, I love anything to do with chocolates! And the sound of the word double chocolate is a treat to the ears for chocolate lovers.
I usually make this by microwaving dark chocolate couverture. Whisk it until the chocolate is shiny and smooth. Then lightly sauté rolled oats in minimal butter (I like a little toasted and nutty flavour, but you can skip it). The rest of the stuff like milk, sweetener, chia seeds, cocoa powder and melted chocolate are soaked overnight along with the oats.
Next day morning all you need to do is, pour over a little more milk if the oats mix is too thick. Add toppings like fresh or freeze dried fruits and chocolate chips.
