My decadent chocolate overnight oats recipe
If you're looking for a delicious, filling breakfast treat, you can't go wrong with overnight oats. Not only is this chocolate overnight oats recipe packed with goodness, it's also really decadent, and whenever I make it, I can't believe it's healthy!
I've used my new Raw Cacao Super Scoop in this recipe to add even more healthy ingredients, as Super Scoop contains a whopping 50 organic fruit and veg extracts. And, I must admit the Raw Cacao flavour is delicious with oats.
Just a word on oats - it's a fabulous grain to have for breakfast because it's:
- High in fibre
- Low in saturated fat
- A slow-release carbohydrate - so no sugar spikes
- Versatile and easy to cook
