Chocolate Hazelnut Overnight Oats

Print Recipe

Creamy overnight oats infused with rich cocoa and layered over silky hazelnut spread. Topped with toasted hazelnuts, oats, and dark chocolate chips—this indulgent yet wholesome breakfast is perfect for meal prepping or a sweet start to your day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or agave
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup plain or vanilla yogurt (dairy or plant-based)
  • 2 tablespoons hazelnut spread (such as Nutella or a vegan alternative)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped toasted hazelnuts
  • 1 tablespoon dark chocolate chips
  • Extra oats or chocolate shavings for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine oats, chia seeds, cocoa powder, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla, and yogurt. Stir well until fully incorporated.
  2. Let sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping.
  3. Spoon 1 tablespoon of hazelnut spread into the bottom of a glass jar or cup.
  4. Pour the oat mixture over the hazelnut layer and smooth the top.
  5. Cover and refrigerate overnight (or at least 4 hours).
  6. Before serving, top with chopped hazelnuts, chocolate chips, and a sprinkle of oats or chocolate shavings if desired.

Notes

  • For a thicker texture, reduce milk slightly or add more chia seeds.
  • Use a sugar-free hazelnut spread for a lower sugar version.
  • Can be made up to 3 days ahead for convenient breakfasts.
