Equipment

  • 1 High-speed blender Ensures a smooth and creamy texture
  • 8 Jars or airtight containers For portioning and easy grab-and-go storage
  • 1 Microwave-safe bowl For melting chocolate topping

Ingredients

Blended Oats:

  • 2 cups Whole milk Substitute with almond or oat milk for a dairy-free version
  • 1 ½ cups Rolled oats Avoid instant oats for the best texture
  • 2 tablespoon Chia seeds Optional, but adds fiber and thickness
  • 3 tablespoon Unsweetened cacao powder Use high-quality cacao for a richer chocolate flavor
  • 3 tablespoon Pure maple syrup Adjust sweetness to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract Enhances flavor
  • 1 pinch Salt Balances the chocolate taste

Optional Chocolate Frosting Topping:

  • ¼ cup Dark chocolate chips Ghirardelli recommended for best results
  • ¼ cup Whole milk vanilla yogurt Adds a creamy, slightly tangy contrast

Instructions

  • Use a high-speed blender for a creamy, pudding-like texture.
  • Add all blended oat ingredients to the blender in order (milk first, oats last) for smooth blending.
  • Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth, with no visible oat bits.
  • Divide the blended mixture evenly among 8 jars, seal, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt dark chocolate chips in 20-second intervals, stirring in between.
  • Stir melted chocolate with vanilla yogurt until smooth.
  • Spoon the chocolate frosting over chilled oats, cover, and refrigerate for another 4 hours. Enjoy chilled!

Notes

  • Make it Dairy-Free: Swap whole milk for almond, coconut, or oat milk.
  • Protein Boost: Add a scoop of chocolate protein powder before blending.
  • Storage: Stays fresh in the fridge for up to 4 days. Perfect for meal prep!
  • Texture Tip: Stir before serving, as the mixture may settle overnight.
