Blended Chocolate Covered Strawberry Overnight Oats
In this simple breakfast, oats combine with strawberries to provide a healthy dose of fiber to start your day. The thin coating of chocolate on top makes this easy breakfast taste like a treat while keeping the oats fresh underneath. Old-fashioned rolled oats blend easily, absorbing liquid and imparting a creamy texture to the dish.
Ingredients
- 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1 pound fresh strawberries, trimmed and halved (about 3 cups), divided
- 1 cup whole-milk plain strained (greek-style) yogurt
- 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup chopped dark chocolate
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil
- 1/8 teaspoon flaky sea salt
Directions
- Combine oats, almond milk, 2 cups strawberries, yogurt, maple syrup and vanilla in a blender. Process until smooth and thick, about 30 seconds.
- Divide the remaining 1 cup strawberries among 6 (6-ounce) jars. Pour the oat mixture over the strawberries, about 1 cup each.
- Combine chocolate and coconut oil in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on High in 30-second intervals, mixing between each, until the chocolate is fully melted and incorporated into the oil, about 2 minutes.
- Pour the melted chocolate over each jar (about 2 teaspoons each), rotating the jar to fully coat the surface. Sprinkle with flaky salt. Cover and refrigerate until the chocolate is fully set and the mixture has thickened, about 8 hours.
