White Chocolate Reeses Peanut Butter Cup Inspired Overnight Oats

Put a twist on your overnight oats with these jars, inspired by the flavors of a popular candy. The white chocolate shell mimics the exterior of the peanut butter cup for a fun breakfast. Don’t skip the peanuts on top, as they add a nice crunch. Feel free to swap in any milk or nut butter you prefer.

Ingredients

  1. 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  2. 1 3/4 cups unsweetened almond milk
  3. 1 cup whole-milk plain strained (greek-style) yogurt
  4. 1/3 cup crunchy natural peanut butter, well stirred
  5. 3 tablespoons unsalted dry-roasted peanuts, chopped, divided
  6. 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
  7. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  8. 3 tablespoons white chocolate chips
  9. 1 1/2 teaspoons unrefined coconut oil
  10. 1/4 teaspoon flaky sea salt

Directions

  1. Stir oats, almond milk, yogurt, peanut butter, 2 tablespoons peanuts, maple syrup and vanilla together in a large bowl until combined. Refrigerate, covered, until slightly thickened, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  2. Stir chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on Medium, stirring every 20 seconds, until the chocolate is melted, 45 to 60 seconds; stir until the chocolate chips are completely melted and incorporated into the oil.
  3. Divide the oat mixture among 4 (8-ounce) jars, about 1 cup each. Spoon about 2 teaspoons of the melted chocolate over each jar, tilting to cover the entire surface. Refrigerate, uncovered, until the chocolate layer is just set, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with flaky salt and the remaining 1 tablespoon peanuts; cover and refrigerate until the oatmeal has thickened and the chocolate layer is fully set, at least 8 hours or up to 4 days.
