Cookie Dough Overnight Oats are a creamy, rich, and indulgent yet nutritious breakfast or snack option that combines the nostalgic flavors of cookie dough with wholesome ingredients.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon flour or alternative flour (such as oat flour or chickpea flour)
  • 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup milk or milk alternative (dairy, almond, oat, or soy milk)
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt or plant-based yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon nut butter (peanut or almond butter)

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a jar or bowl, mix rolled oats, flour (such as oat or chickpea flour), and mini chocolate chips to create the dry base for that cookie dough texture.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients Separately: In another bowl, whisk together milk, Greek or plant-based yogurt, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and nut butter until creamy and smooth. This mixture will infuse the oats with rich cookie dough flavor.
  3. Stir and Refrigerate: Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients, stirring well to ensure all oats are coated. Seal your container and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 6 hours, allowing oats to soften and flavors to meld.
  4. Give It a Good Stir Before Eating: Stir your cookie dough overnight oats thoroughly to mix any settled layers. Enjoy cold or warm gently in the microwave or on the stove if preferred.

Notes

  • Use rolled oats for the best creamy texture; avoid instant oats as they can become mushy.
  • Adjust sweetness by tasting your mixture before refrigerating; you can reduce maple syrup or honey.
  • Add additional chocolate chips just before eating for extra melty texture.
  • Consider portioning in individual jars for easy grab-and-go meals.
  • Allow at least 6 hours soaking; overnight refrigeration is ideal for full flavor and texture development.
