- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 2 dates, chopped
- 1/3 cup plain greek yogurt

Chocolate shell

Instructions
- Prepare the oats: mix the oats, salt, chia seeds, dates, yogurt, peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract and milk together in a mixing bowl or jar. Cover and place in the fridge overnight to set, or for a minimum of 4 hours.
- Make the caramel: Before serving, mix the peanut butter, maple syrup and vanilla extract together.
- Make the chocolate shell: Before serving, melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Assemble: Layer the oats to the bottom of a cup or bowl. Spread the peanut caramel layer over the oats, then pour the chocolate shell on top. Place back in the fridge for at least 10 minutes for the chocolate shell to set.
Notes
The caramel and chocolate shell are optional. You can leave them out for a lighter breakfast or just add a sprinkle of chocolate chips to your oats.
