Equipment:

• Mason jar or airtight container
• Mixing bowl
• Spoon
• Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
• 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (optional, for extra creaminess)
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds
• 1-2 tablespoons almond butter or peanut butter
• 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips (plus extra for topping)
• Pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Mix the Ingredients:
   • In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, Greek yogurt (if using), chia seeds, almond or peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir well until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
2. Add Chocolate Chips:
   • Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
3. Transfer to Jar:
   • Pour the mixture into a mason jar or an airtight container. If you like, you can sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top for added flavor.
4. Chill Overnight:
   • Seal the jar or container and place it in the refrigerator. Allow the oats to soak and thicken overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
5. Serve:
   • In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If the consistency is too thick, you can add a splash of milk to loosen it up.
   • Top with additional mini chocolate chips, a drizzle of almond or peanut butter, or even a sprinkle of crushed nuts if desired.
6. Enjoy:
   • Enjoy your Cookie Dough Overnight Oats straight from the jar, or transfer to a bowl if preferred.

Tips:

• Sweetness: Adjust the sweetness to your preference by adding more or less maple syrup or honey.
• Texture: For a crunchier texture, stir in a handful of chopped nuts or seeds before serving.
• Meal Prep: Make multiple servings at once by doubling or tripling the recipe, and store in separate jars for easy grab-and-go breakfasts throughout the week.
