Ingredients
Scale
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup milk (or plant-based milk)
2 tablespoons peanut butter
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1–2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt

Instructions
Gather Your Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients listed above — it really sets the mood for this simple and satisfying recipe!
Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a bowl or jar, add the rolled oats, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt. This is where magic begins; the oats will soak up all those delightful flavors!
Mix the Wet Ingredients: In the same bowl, pour in the milk of your choice and add the peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. That heavenly blend is what will make you fall in love with breakfast.
Stir until Smooth: Using a spoon or a fork, stir everything together until well combined. You want to ensure the peanut butter and cocoa marry with the oats for that creamy consistency.
Refrigerate Overnight: Cover your bowl or jar with a lid or plastic wrap and pop it in the fridge overnight. Letting the oats soak allows them to soften and take on all the luscious flavors you’ve combined.
Morning Delight: In the morning, take your oats out of the fridge and stir them again. This little mix will bring everything back together after a night of coaxing those oats.
Top and Serve: Now for the fun part, it’s time to add toppings! Whether you choose sliced bananas, a sprinkle of chocolate chips, or a handful of nuts, pile it high and dig in!
Notes
These oats can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Use rolled oats for the best texture.
