Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients

  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats approx. 85g
  • 1 cup coconut water I used H2O brand; approx. 240 ml
  • ½ cup plain yogurt approx. 115 g; I use soy or coconut yogurt, but any thick Greek-style yogurt works.
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds  
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup adjust to taste
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract 
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder  unsweetened
  • 1.4 oz dark chocolate approx. 40g; melted; I use dairy-free dark chocolate.
  • 1 tablespoon toasted coconut flakes optional; unsweetened

Instructions

  • Add rolled oats, coconut water, yogurt, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  • Pour half the mixture into a jar or glass and set aside.
  • Add cocoa powder to the remaining mixture in the blender and blend again until fully combined.
  • Spoon the chocolate oat mixture over the plain layer in the jar to create a layered effect.
  • Pour melted dark chocolate over the top and sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes (optional).
  • Chill in the fridge for about 10 minutes until the chocolate shell hardens. Crack through the top and enjoy.

Notes

Store in the fridge for up to 4 days.
