It was delicious! I didn’t add any yogurt and use honey over vanilla. It was like a dessert for breakfast!
(there’s 69 reviews, and I’m basically messing it up, but whatever)
Hello!
I halved the recipe so I could make one for myself(the card says it serves two.) I halved everything else, but then forgot to halve the yogurt and mixed it in. Oops! I only noticed that is was a bit liquid-y after I had mixed it in. Will it still turn out well?
Anyways, it was quick and easy to prepare. I’m doing it so I can have a quick breakfast before school, so can I reheat it? It’ s awfully cold where I live.
This is such a great recipe. I use non-dairy yogurt, and I love to add a half teaspoon of cinnamon and fresh blueberries to top it off. So yummy!
These are our go-to overnight oats recipe. Actually, all of yours are and these of course are the kid’s favroite! Perfect!
Omg! Since the cocoa wasn’t actually cooked I was skeptical whether it’d mix well or not. But wow this tastes sooo good. I added half a tablespoon of Nutella as an additional treat. Thank you!
Love the Nutella add!
Prepared this last night and just ate it. Really yummy. I was so tempted to lick the bowl clean! Great recipe. Thanks!
Do you use plain greek yoghurt or sweetened?
Either work! We usually use plain.
Love this recipe! Adding banana slices or strawberries in the morning is delish!
