Chocolate Banana Overnight Oats

Name: Chocolate Banana Overnight Oats
Prep time: 5 min
Cook time: 8 h
Total time: 8 h 5 min
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 40 g Rolled Oats; 100 g Nonfat Greek Yogurt; 120 ml Whole Milk; 10 g Chia Seeds; 8 g Cocoa Powder; 1 tsp Vanilla Extract; 1 tbsp Maple Syrup; 1 medium Bananas (sliced)

Rolled oats, Greek yogurt and chia set overnight with cocoa and vanilla until thick. Mix it the night before and slice the banana on top in the morning.

The chia seeds do the thickening: they swell in the milk and yogurt and hold the oats in a spoonable set, so keep them in. Cocoa powder clumps in cold liquid, so stir until no dry streaks remain before you seal the jar. Nonfat Greek yogurt gives a thick result; a thinner yogurt gives a looser one. Slice the banana just before eating, because cut banana browns and softens in the jar.

Start this the night before — something here has to soak, prove or set overnight.
