Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk of choice (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or dairy-free yogurt
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies
Toppings
- Additional crushed chocolate sandwich cookies
- Whipped cream
- Chocolate chips
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a bowl or jar, mix the rolled oats, milk, yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined. This creates the creamy base for your overnight oats.
- Add Cookies: Gently fold the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies into the oat mixture, ensuring even distribution without overmixing to preserve some texture.
- Refrigerate: Cover the bowl or jar with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight (at least 6-8 hours) to allow the oats to absorb the liquids and soften nicely.
- Serve: In the morning, stir the oats well. Add your favorite toppings such as additional crushed cookies, whipped cream, or chocolate chips for extra indulgence and serve chilled.
Notes
- If you prefer a thinner consistency, add a splash more milk before refrigerating.
- Maple syrup or honey is optional and can be adjusted according to desired sweetness.
- For a dairy-free version, choose non-dairy milk (like almond or oat milk) and coconut or almond yogurt.
- Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Add fresh fruit like sliced bananas or berries as additional toppings for extra flavor and nutrition.
