- To prepare these almond butter overnight oats you'll need:
- - 1 cup rolled oats
- - 2 tablespoons almond butter
- - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- - 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- - 1 cup almond milk
- - 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- - 1 tablespoon cocoa powder for that extra rich flavor
- To Serve:
- - ½ cup fresh raspberries
- - 1 additional tablespoon almond butter
Step 1: Prepare Your Jars
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chia seeds, and cocoa powder. This will give your oats a satisfying texture and a rich flavor profile.
Step 3: Add Wet Ingredients
Now, add the almond milk, almond butter, vanilla extract, and maple syrup to the dry mixture. Without mixing yet, admire how the creamy almond butter sits atop the oats, almost like a beautiful sunset.
Step 6: Let Them Set
Pop the jars in the refrigerator for at least two hours, or ideally, overnight. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid, creating that creamy texture we love.
