The next day, divide the batch in four small jars. For the top caramel layer, you soak pitted dates in boiled water. Then, use a fork to mash into a date puree and mash in salt, maple syrup, and peanut butter. It should form a paste that tastes like caramel paste.
Spread evenly on top of each jar. Finally, melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl or non-stick saucepan over medium heat. Pour the chocolate mixture into the jar. Decorate the top with chopped roasted peanuts to add some crunch.
Serve the next day as a filling breakfast or post-workout snack to refuel on proteins.
Instrucciones de almacenamiento
You can store the overnight oats for up to 3 days in a sealed jar in the fridge so they are ready to eat when you need. You may not be able to screw a lid on top of the chocolate layer, so you can add a piece of foil on top of the jar.
Intercambios para personas con alergias
Below are some ingredient swap ideas for this healthy snickers overnight oats recipe:
- Mantequilla de maní – Almond Snickers are a tasty thing you can make by swapping peanut butter for almond butter and peanuts for roasted almonds.
- Sin nueces – Replace the nut butter and nuts with sunflower seed butter and sunflower seeds or coconut. Also, make sure you use nut-free milk like oat milk or coconut milk.
- Sin gluten – Use a gluten-free oat brand.
- Chia Seed-Free – Chia seeds add texture to overnight oats. Because they are high in fiber, they soak up a lot of liquid. So, if you remove chia seeds, you need to add an extra 1/4 cup of oats or swap them for 2 tablespoons of ground flaxseeds.
Preguntas frecuentes
Below are my answers to your most common questions about this recipe.
Yes, you can mess up overnight oats in three ways.
– First, if you add too much liquid or remove the chia seeds, the absorbency will be low. As a result, the recipe won’t get its creamy texture and come together.
– Next, if you didn’t stir the mixture well before you refrigerate overnight or use narrow jars, chia seeds will sink to the bottom of the jar, forming lumps.
– Finally, using quick oats makes overnight oats creamier. If you like the texture less chunky, pick that option.
Absolutely, overnight oats are healthy snacks packed with all you need to feel energized and full, like fiber and proteins. However, a snack should be smaller than a breakfast serving, so divide the portion in half if you use a breakfast recipe to keep the snack calories in control.
