Ingredients

  • 20 g dark chocolate 85%
  • 400 ml soy milk
  • 12 tablespoons oats
  • 4 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 2 heaped tablespoons vegan protein powder optional
  • 1 heaped tablespoon peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup

Instructions

  • Add some of the milk in the bowl with your leftover chocolate, cover it with a clean film or a plate and melt it in a microwave. Add in the microwave for 30 seconds at 800w. Remove, check if it has melted, if not add for additional 30 seconds. Be careful not to burn the chocolate.
  • Use a silicon spatula to combine completely the melted chocolate into the milk and then transfer the mixture into a larger bowl.
  • Then add the oats, chia seeds, protein powder if using and mix well.
  • Add the peanut butter and maple syrup and mix to combine.
  • Optionally, transfer the mixture into individual jars or just cover the bowl and store it in the fridge.
  • After a couple of hours or the next morning serve with your favorite toppings. I like to add some crunch, so I'm using nuts, maybe fruits or whatever I have handy really.
