Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup (75 grams) fresh raspberries
- ¼ cup (45 grams) dark chocolate chunks or chips
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 ½ cups (360 milliliters/12 fl oz) almond milk
- 2 tbsps maple syrup or honey
- 3 tbsps dark cocoa powder
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Blend Base: Whisk almond milk, dark cocoa powder, maple syrup, and salt in a mixing bowl until a velvety, smooth liquid forms.
- Integrate Oats: Fold rolled oats into the chocolate mixture, ensuring complete coverage and immersion of each oat grain.
- Distribute Fillings: Gently mix half of the dark chocolate chunks and fresh raspberries into the oat blend, keeping some aside for garnishing.
- Prepare for Chilling: Transfer the chocolate-raspberry oat mixture into two glass containers, sealing tightly with lids or plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Allow the oats to rest and absorb flavors in the refrigerator for a minimum of 8 hours or through the night.
- Final Touches: Remove from refrigerator, stir gently, and adjust consistency with additional almond milk if needed. Adorn with reserved chocolate chunks, fresh raspberries, and delicate chocolate shavings.
- Serve and Enjoy: Present the chilled overnight oats immediately, relishing the luxurious combination of deep chocolate and bright raspberry notes.
Notes
- Optimize Overnight Soaking: Allow at least 8 hours of refrigeration to ensure oats fully absorb liquid and develop a creamy, luxurious texture without becoming soggy.
- Master Milk Consistency: Keep extra almond milk handy to adjust thickness, preventing dry or overly dense oats during morning serving.
- Preserve Fruit Freshness: Add fresh raspberries just before serving to maintain their vibrant color, prevent mushiness, and retain maximum flavor and nutritional integrity.
- Elevate Chocolate Experience: Use high-quality dark cocoa powder and dark chocolate chunks to enhance deep, rich flavor profiles and boost antioxidant content.
