Black Forest Overnight Oats are creamy, rich, and fudge, studded with sweet cherries. And while these Chocolate Cherry Overnight Oats taste indulgent, they're a balanced way to start the day with over 30 grams protein and 10 grams fiber.
optional garnishes: whipped cream, mini chocolate chips
Instructions
Combine all the ingredients except the cherries into a small bowl or mason jar. Stir until evenly combined.
Let mixture set for 5 minutes then stir again. This step helps prevent the oats and seeds from settling at the bottom of the jar. If you want to mix your cherries in, stir in now.
Cover the container and refrigerate overnight oats for overnight, or at least 4 hours.
When ready to eat, stir and see if you need to add an extra splash or two of milk to create your ideal consistency.
Stir in or layer overnight oats with cherries. If desired, garnish with a small dollop of whipped cream and a few mini chocolate chips and enjoy.
