Ingredients You'll Need

These chocolate peanut butter overnight oats come together with simple pantry staples. Rolled oats create the best texture, while dairy-free milk makes them creamy to your liking. Peanut butter adds richness, cocoa powder brings the chocolate flavor, and chia seeds help thicken everything into a pudding-like consistency. A drizzle of maple syrup adds sweetness, while vanilla extract and a pinch of sea salt round it all out.

Before serving, give it a good stir and add a splash of dairy-free milk if needed. Store in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Topping Ideas

Enjoy as is or add your favorite toppings for extra flavor and texture. Try vegan dark chocolate chips, a drizzle of peanut butter, fresh berries, sliced banana, chopped peanuts, or a sprinkle of chia seeds.

Variations

Make this chocolate peanut butter overnight oats recipe your own with these easy swaps and add-ins.

Powdered peanut butter: Swap regular peanut butter for 1-2 tablespoons powdered peanut butter like PB2. This gives you the same flavor with a lighter texture.

Banana chocolate peanut butter overnight oats: Mash ½ ripe banana into the oat mixture before chilling. It adds natural sweetness and makes the oats extra creamy. You can also top with sliced banana before serving.

No chia seeds: Skip the chia seeds if needed. The oats will be a bit looser, so reduce the milk slightly or let the mixture sit longer to thicken.
