Brownie Batter Overnight Oats
Is it possible to eat dessert for breakfast? You may be thinking no way, but I’m saying yessssssss way! Today’s breakfast? Brownie batter!
I’m not sure there is anything better than brownie batter, honestly. Yeah, yeah, it has raw egg, blah, blah, blah, whatever. It’s freaking delicious. Totally worth the risk, am I right? But, okay, I guess it’s not appropriate for breakfast. This must be changed!
Take out most of the sugar and add oats and voila! We’ve got a perfectly acceptable breakfast AND it tastes like a bowl of brownie batter! If you’ve never tried overnight oats, I suggest you try them right now. They are so simple, you literally just stir some ingredients together, cover and chill overnight and they are ready for you in the morning!
These Brownie Batter Oats are rich and chocolately, but also healthy. I use plain Greek yogurt, unsweetened almond milk, and sweeten with agave or other natural sweeteners. The worst part is the chocolate chips, but they are a must for me! You can really use whatever kind of milk, yogurt, or sweetener you prefer. Overnight oats are basically impossible to screw up! So, yes, you can eat brownies for breakfast!

Oh yum! This would definitely help me get out of bed in the mornings :D
I’m just curious , doni cook the oats or out them in raw ? Weird question right !
Nope, that’s what makes overnight oats so great, no cooking required. They will soak up the liquid from the milk and yogurt and become soft to eat by morning.
Raw old fashioned oats. Not quick oats
Is it half a cup of almond milk?
Yes! Thanks for catching that!
Can you use any milk or only almond milk?
Any milk will do!
