Mocha Almond Overnight Oats

This Mocha Almond Overnight Oats is perfect for traveling or on the go. You get coffee and breakfast all in one!

If you have a busy morning, this Mocha Almond Overnight Oats is great way to start your day off right. It has everything you need: whole grains, protein, fiber, and caffeine to jump start your day.

Serve Hot or Cold

Even though this is an overnight oats recipe, you could really eat this right after making the coffee, and eat it hot. I like it hot or cold. After brewing the coffee, the oats just need to sit for a little while to soak up the coffee goodness.

Cold brewed coffee would also work great in this. I make it often because it is less acidic than regular brewed coffee.

Ingredients

• Gluten free rolled oats: Old fashioned rolled oats work best for overnight oats. They get soft enough while not being too mushy.
• Cacao powder: Adds a rich chocolaty flavor. You could also use cocoa powder.
• Agave syrup: I used agave syrup because it is one of my favorite sweeteners. You could also use maple syrup, dates, brown sugar, white sugar, or a sugar free sweetener
• Coffee: I like cold brew coffee because it is less acidic.
• Chia seeds: For protein and fiber. You could leave them out.
• Almond butter: Adds a nutty flavor and protein.
• Chocolate chips or chunks: For some dark rich chocolaty goodness. For a healthier version you could use cacao nibs.

**Important!

If you are gluten free you may want to avoid coffee altogether. I personally have never had a problem drinking it, and I have a gluten intolerance. It is probably because I drink whole bean organic coffee, and grind it myself.

I learned after posting my Vegan Bulletproof Coffee from some readers on Facebook that it can be problematic for people who don't tolerate gluten. So I did some research and one article mentioned to try organic whole bean coffee because it isn't highly processed causing cross-reactivity issues.

So please do the research yourself, and test it out. I try to only post recipes that are 100% gluten free since I have a gluten intolerance. I am really careful about avoiding gluten in my daily life, so this was all news to me.
