Strat your day healthy Snickers Overnight Oats! Creamy oats, peanut butter, date caramel, and dark chocolate make this protein-packed treat an easy, guilt-free delight.
Make the overnight oats: In a bowl or jar mix oats, chia seeds, salt and chopped peanuts.
Add milk, yogurt, peanut butter and mix until combined.
Transfer to a jar or a glass and refrigerate for one hour.
Make the "caramel": place 2 pitted dates into a bowl, cover with hot water and allow to sit for 10 minutes. Then, transfer the dates with one tablespoon of the soaking water into a blender, add 1 tablespoon of peanut butter and blend until smooth and looks like caramel. Note: you can do this process without a blender by mashing the dates with a fork.
Spread the "caramel" over the oats.
Make the chocolate layer: place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of milk. Microwave for 15 seconds. Then stir until melted and smooth.
Pour over the caramel layer and spread evenly.
Refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
Before serving sprinkle some chopped peanuts (optional)
