Estos Banana Chocolate Overnight Oats are a creamy chocolate breakfast with delicious banana flavors. It’s naturally packed with 11 grams of protein, 11 grams of fiber, and it keeps you full until lunchtime.
I’m a huge fan of overnight oats, like my Avena nocturna con proteínas, Avena nocturna con frambuesas o Avena de arándanos durante la noche and today I wanted to make a version that combines two of my favorite tastes: banana and chocolate. Let me share how I made it!

Nutrición
Ingredientes y sustituciones

- Leche de almendras sin azúcar – The liquid base that makes the oats creamy without adding extra sugar. You can swap it for soy milk to boost protein, oat milk for a naturally sweeter taste, or coconut milk for a richer texture. You can also swap half of it for high-protein soy yogurt for even more protein.
- Plátano machacado – Naturally sweetens the oats and adds a creamy consistency. The riper the banana, the sweeter and smoother it will be. If you don’t like bananas, try unsweetened applesauce or mashed mango, though the flavor will change slightly.
- Cacao en polvo sin azúcar – To add deep chocolate flavor without extra sugar. You can use cacao powder for a more intense taste and added antioxidants. Avoid sweetened cocoa powder, as it will alter the sweetness balance.
- Copos de avena tradicionales – The base of the recipe, providing fiber and texture. Quick oats make the mixture softer and thicker, while steel-cut oats (if used) will need more soaking time and additional liquid.
- Chia Semillas – To help thicken the oats by absorbing liquid, adding fiber, and providing omega-3s. You can swap for flaxseed meal for a similar effect or omit them for a looser consistency.
- Jarabe de arce – A natural sweetener that blends well with the chocolate and banana flavors. You can use agave syrup or date syrup, or skip it if using a very ripe banana. Granulated sugar won’t dissolve as easily in cold liquid.
- Extracto de vainilla – Enhances the overall flavor and adds depth. If you don’t have it, try a drop of almond extract for a nutty twist or omit it for a more chocolate-forward taste.
- Salt (Optional) – It intensifies the chocolate flavor. If reducing sodium, you can leave it out, but even a small pinch makes a noticeable difference.

Consejos de Carine
- Adjust the Sweetness Naturally – If your banana is very ripe, taste the blended mixture before adding maple syrup. You may not need extra sweetener.
- Make It High-Protein – Stir in 3 tablespoons of protein powder for an extra boost. The oats will thicken, so add a splash of milk before eating.
- For a Thicker Consistency – Use quick oats instead of rolled oats, or reduce the liquid slightly.
- Increase Fiber & Omega-3s – Add a tablespoon of ground flaxseeds or hemp seeds for extra nutrients without affecting the texture too much.
- Customize with Mix-Ins – Stir in shredded coconut, chopped nuts, or a handful of berries before serving for extra texture and flavor.
