Reese’s Overnight Oats- High Protein Make Ahead Breakfast

Reese’s Overnight Oats (High-Protein, Make-Ahead Breakfast)

If you love the classic peanut butter + chocolate combo, these Reese’s Overnight Oats are going to feel like dessert for breakfast — without the sugar crash. They’re creamy, filling, packed with protein, and perfect for busy mornings when you want something ready to grab and go.

This recipe makes 4 servings, which means breakfast is handled for several days. Even better? That thin layer of melted chocolate on top hardens into a chocolate shell, giving you that true Reese’s-style experience with every bite.

Why You’ll Love These Reese’s Overnight Oats

• High protein to keep you full and satisfied
• No cooking required
• Perfect meal prep breakfast
• Creamy with just the right amount of texture
• Tastes indulgent but fits a balanced lifestyle

Ingredients (Serves 4)

• 1 ½ cups old-fashioned oats
• 1 ½ cups milk of choice
• 1 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons sugar-free peanut butter
• 3 tablespoons chia seeds
• 3 tablespoons hemp hearts (optional, for added nutrition)
• 1 scoop protein powder (vanilla works great)
• At least 2 tablespoons PB Fit (especially if using vanilla protein)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• A couple pinches of salt

Chocolate Shell Topping

• 3–4 tablespoons chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon coconut oil

How to Make Reese’s Overnight Oats

1. Blend most of the oats.
   Add everything to a blender except ½ cup of the oats. Blend until smooth and creamy.
2. Add texture.
   Stir in the remaining ½ cup oats by hand. This gives the overnight oats a better, heartier texture.
3. Portion it out.
   Divide the mixture evenly into four containers or jars. I used a scale to make sure they all weighed the same.
4. Make the chocolate shell.
   Melt the chocolate chips with the coconut oil until smooth. Carefully spoon the melted chocolate over the top of each container.
5. Chill.
   Refrigerate until ready to eat. The chocolate will harden into a thin shell — just like a Reese’s!

How to Serve

• Eat straight from the fridge
• Crack the chocolate shell and stir for maximum peanut butter-chocolate goodness

Tips & Variations

• Want extra peanut butter flavor? Don’t skip the PB Fit — it really boosts that Reese’s taste.
• Prefer it thicker? Add an extra tablespoon of chia seeds.
• Not a fan of hemp hearts? Leave them out — they’re optional.
• This recipe works great for meal prep and stays fresh for several days in the fridge.
• Make sure you taste it. Add some sweetener if it needs more.

If Reese’s are your weakness but you still want a nourishing, protein-packed breakfast, these overnight oats are the best of both worlds.
