Ingredients You’ll Need
For this Pinterest-worthy overnight oats recipe, you’ll need:
Base:
- ½ cup rolled oats (I use organic)
- ½ cup oat milk (or any milk of your choice)
- 1 tbsp chia seeds (for thickness + extra glow-up benefits)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
Toppings:
- ½ cup fresh cherries, pitted & sliced
- ¼ cup dark chocolate chunks (because we’re luxurious like that)
- 1 tbsp crushed pistachios (for crunch + protein)
- 1 tbsp Greek yogurt (optional, for creaminess)
How to Make Dark Chocolate Cherry Overnight Oats
Step 1: Mix Your Base
In a mason jar or container, combine oats, oat milk, chia seeds, vanilla, and honey. Stir it all together and let it sit for a few minutes so the chia seeds start thickening.
Step 2: Layer Like You Mean It
Add a layer of chopped fresh cherries followed by dark chocolate chunks.
Step 3: Refrigerate Overnight
Cover your jar and place it in the fridge for at least 4 hours (or overnight).
Step 4: The Finishing Touches
In the morning, top with Greek yogurt, more cherries, and a sprinkle of crushed pistachios.
Step 5: Romanticize & Enjoy!
Make your breakfast feel like a whole self-care moment. Light a candle, grab your journal, and sip on an iced coffee while you enjoy your glow-up-approved breakfast.
