High Protein Coffee Overnight Oats is a delicious and nutritious breakfast option that combines the flavors of coffee, chocolate, and protein in a convenient make-ahead meal.

Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients:

  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk (or your preferred milk)
  • ½ cup cooled coffee or cold brew
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup (adjust to your sweetness preference)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients:

  • 1 cup rolled oats (use gluten-free oats if desired)
  • 1 scoop (4 tablespoons) protein powder of your choice (I used unflavored collagen peptides)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • Optional for a mocha flavor: 2 to 3 teaspoons cacao powder (or unsweetened cocoa powder)
  • 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, almond milk, cooled coffee (or cold brew), maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk everything together until smooth.
  2. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the rolled oats, protein powder, chia seeds, and cacao powder (if making mocha-flavored oats). Mix until everything is well combined.
  3. Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in one tablespoon of mini chocolate chips.
  4. Chill Overnight: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the fridge. Let it chill for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  5. Serve: Once ready to serve, divide the mixture into two 12-ounce mason jars (or serve in bowls as desired). Top with a dollop of Greek yogurt and sprinkle with the remaining chocolate chips. For an extra boost of protein and healthy fats, drizzle almond butter on top.
