Blended Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Overnight Oats

(1)

In this simple breakfast, oats combine with strawberries while providing a healthy dose of fiber to start your day. The thin coating of chocolate on top makes this easy breakfast taste like a treat while keeping the oats fresh underneath. Old-fashioned rolled oats blend easily, absorbing liquid and imparting a creamy texture to the dish.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats

  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk

  • 1 pound fresh strawberries, trimmed and halved (about 3 cups), divided

  • 1 cup whole-milk plain strained (Greek-style) yogurt

  • 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup

  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

  • 1/3 cup chopped dark chocolate

  • 2 teaspoons coconut oil

  • 1/8 teaspoon flaky sea salt

Directions

  1. Combine oats, almond milk, 2 cups strawberries, yogurt, maple syrup and vanilla in a blender. Process until smooth and thick, about 30 seconds.

  2. Divide the remaining 1 cup strawberries among 6 (6-ounce) jars. Pour the oat mixture over the strawberries, about 1 cup each.

  3. Combine chocolate and coconut oil in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on High in 30-second intervals, mixing between each, until the chocolate is fully melted and incorporated into the oil, about 2 minutes.

  4. Pour the melted chocolate over each jar (about 2 teaspoons each), rotating the jar to fully coat the surface. Sprinkle with flaky salt. Cover and refrigerate until the chocolate is fully set and the mixture has thickened, about 8 hours.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
