Deze Chocolade Overnight Oats taste like a creamy chocolate dessert and are super healthy for you, packed with almost 11 grams of protein and 10 grams of fiber, and they are easy to meal prep for a week of filling breakfasts.
I love overnight oats recipes like my very popular Overnight Oats met eiwitpoeder en Diabetic Overnight Oats but today I wanted a very simple, back-to-basic chocolate version for a healthy breakfast loaded with nutrients.

Chocolade Overnight Oats
Ingrediënten
- 1 ½ cups Ongezoete amandelmelk - (notitie 1)
- 3 eetlepels Ongezoet cacaopoeder
- ¼ cup Ahornsiroop - (notitie 2)
- 1 ½ cup Ouderwetse havervlokken - (notitie 3)
- 2 theelepels Chia Seeds - (notitie 4)
optioneel
- 1 theelepel Vanille-extract - (notitie 5)
Instructies
- In a small mixing bowl, warm 1/4 cup of almond milk. I microwave mine for 30 seconds. This is optional, but warming the milk makes it easier to dissolve the cocoa in it.
- Whisk the cocoa powder into the warm milk.
- In a large mixing bowl, or airtight glass container, add oats, chia seeds, chocolate warm almond milk from step 1, remaining almond milk, and vanilla extract if used. Stir to combine evenly.
- Seal the bowl or close the airtight containers and place them in the fridge overnight – or at least 4 hours.
- The next day, serve with chocolate chips or chopped nuts.

Voedingsbegeleiding
Ingrediënten en vervangingen
You only need 5 basic ingredients to make this recipe. Here’s how to pick them.

- Ongezoete amandelmelk – This is the creamy base and keeps the recipe dairy-free. It can be replaced with soy milk for extra protein.
- Ongezoet cacaopoeder – To add a rich chocolate flavor. Dissolving it in warm milk prevents clumps.
- Ahornsiroop – Any natural sweetener balances the bitterness of cocoa. You can swap it with agave syrup or a sugar-free alternative.
- Havermout – The main fiber-rich ingredient that keeps you full. Quick oats work too but may result in a softer texture.
- Chia Seeds – They help thicken the oats and add fiber, omega-3s, and healthy fats. They can be omitted for a looser texture.
- Vanille-extract – This is optional and enhances the chocolate flavor for a more dessert-like taste.

Stir the mixture until it’s well combined and divide it into two containers. Leave them in the fridge overnight.
Carine's tips
While this recipe is really simple, I have a few more tips for you to make it perfect every single time!
- Dissolve Cocoa Powder – Warm a small amount of milk before whisking in the cocoa to ensure a smooth consistency.
- Thicker & Higher Protein – Stir in 2-3 tablespoons of protein powder or top with plant-based yogurt.
- Verbeter de smaak – Add a pinch of salt to bring out the richness of the chocolate.
- Maaltijdvoorbereidingsvriendelijk – Make a batch for up to 4 days for quick, nutritious breakfasts.
- Smaakvariaties – Mix in chocolate chips, chopped nuts, shredded coconut, frozen berries, or peanut butter for different flavors.






Hi! Instead of unsweetened cocoa powder, can I substitute protein powder instead? Thanks!
Ja het is mogelijk!
Delicious! We served it warmed a little bit in the microwave as a dessert! I decorated it with banana slices and over them I drizzled some melted Biscoff cream! Yummy! Easy and healthy.
