Do You Love Cookie Dough?
One of my favorite things to do as a kid was to lick the bowl after making baked goods. My mom makes this AMAZING cookie bar recipe called congo squares. They are a mixture of chocolate chip cookies and blondies in one recipe.
Let’s just say the batter is the best thing I’ve ever eaten.
More recently, I’ve been obsessed with all things peanut butter. Wahhhhh. You didn’t know that? đŸ˜› This recipe reminds me of the batter of Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies (this recipe, but with peanut butter to be exact).
The beautiful thing about these peanut butter overnight oats is that there are no eggs in this recipe! You can feel free to lick the bowl without fear.
Why Overnight Oats?
There is no question that we are huge overnight oat lovers. Overnight oats are easy to make and there are a variety of different flavors to choose from. Are you new to the overnight oat world? Check out all the reasons we like overnight oats here!
The main reason we love overnight oat is that they are delicious and perfect for meal prep. We like to make a big batch of overnight oats at the beginning of the week and eat them all week long.
These Overnight Oats Are:
- Thick
- Peanut buttery
- Packed with protein (thank you peanut flour!)
- Lower in fat (thank you peanut flour, again!)
- HEALTHY
Because there wasn’t enough peanut buttery taste already, I topped mine with some real, all-natural peanut butter that I got from Costco last week. Don’t even let me start with Costco. #truelove

Oh my goodness! I love overnight oats and can’t wait to make this! You have awesome recipes, in fact, I can’t get out of the breakfast ones! Keep looking and printing more and more of them! Love your site and such delicious recipes!! Thank you!!
WOOO! I could eat breakfast for every meal so I feel like I tend to gravitate towards them when it comes to making recipes for FFF đŸ™‚
23G of sugar?! That’s more than you should have in an entire day in one meal! Love the idea of this but way too much sugar for me.
Try this.unsweetened almond milk, plain Greek yogurt and instead of chocolate add raisins. Adjust how sweet you like it with more or less honey or maple syrup. Should cut down on the total sugar.
The recommended guideline is 24g of ADDED sugar per day, not naturally occurring sugar. So eliminate any of the sugar from the Greek yogurt & oats in your calculations. You cooked always replace the honey/maple syrup with an overripe banana or stevia/monk fruit, etc.
My brother and I were also born on the same day but we are exactly a year apart. We were born on Nov 18. We have a sister that was born in Oct and one in Jan so we counted back and figured our parents were either celebrating Valentines Day or their anniversary which is Feb 15. Wonder what your parents were celebrating? LOL
LOLOLOL. I think they were just celebrating life đŸ˜›
Can’t wait to try this! Peanut butter is my fave!
My brother & sister have the same birthday (6 years apart) and my Dad’s is the next day.
My girls are 10 years apart but were both born on the 28th of a month (August & April). There was 4 minutes difference between the time of day they were each born, and gross but true, their placentas were delivered at the exact same time of day. Weird!
HAHAHAHAHAAHA. I love random family facts like this đŸ™‚
This looks delicious but i have an almond allergy, can i use regular milk as a substitute (i also have a soy allergy so soy milk is out)
I was wondering how long they stay good for in the fridge? Can you make a batch for the whole week at once? This looks so delish! Thanks!
I would say up to 4 or 5 days!
I can’t find peanut flour, can I use almond flour? If I sub peanut butter how much should I use?
Hmmmmmm. Peanut flour and almond flour are very different. Peanut flour is actually defatted peanuts and then ground into a flour where as almond flour is actually just ground almonds! Did you check amazon? That’s where I get mine! It’s also readily available at the store from a product called PB2. If you use peanut butter, I would use about a tablespoon per serving…so a total of 2 tablespoons!
Thank you!
Love the sound of this and can’t wait to try it! How about PB2 instead of the PB Flour? If so, would it still be a1/4C?
It’s the same exact thing! So yes, still 1/4 cup!
Just found your site and LOVE these recipes! April 17th does rule – its my son’s birthday. He and my younger son are exactly 4 years and one week apart. Question – could I substitute something like Quest peanut butter protein powder for the peanut flour – would it end up with a similar texture or would I also need to add chia? Thanks!!
