Description
Cookie Dough Protein Overnight Oats are a creamy, high-protein breakfast made with rolled oats, nut butter, and dairy-free milk. They taste like cookie dough but are packed with plant-based nutrition and fiber for lasting energy.
Ingredients
1 ½ cups rolled oats
2 tbsp chia seeds
3 tbsp vegan chocolate chips or cacao nibs
2 tbsp peanut or almond butter
3 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp alcohol-free vanilla flavor (Simply Organic Alcohol-Free Vanilla Flavor or Watkins Clear Vanilla Flavor)
2 cups dairy-free milk
1 scoop vegan protein powder
Instructions
1. In a large bowl, combine oats, chia seeds, and chocolate chips or cacao nibs.
2. Add peanut or almond butter, maple syrup, alcohol-free vanilla flavor, dairy-free milk, and protein powder.
3. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly combined.
4. Divide the mixture into jars or containers with lids.
5. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
6. Stir before serving and enjoy chilled or warmed with your favorite toppings like sliced banana or an extra drizzle of nut butter.
Notes
For a creamier texture, use rolled oats instead of quick oats.
You can substitute maple syrup with honey or agave syrup.
To increase protein, add an extra half scoop of vegan protein powder or dairy-free yogurt.
Cacao nibs are a great lower-sugar option compared to chocolate chips.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days in a sealed container.
If the oats thicken too much, add a splash of milk before eating.
