This was good, though a little overpowering on the coco powder side. I did use cacao powder though, so that was probably it. It was still yummy and adding yogurt, strawberries, and bananas really hit the spot!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Aug. 15, 2024, 7:46 p.m.

Hey Eve, thanks for sharing your experience with the recipe. We prefer Dutch-processed cocoa powder since it's sweeter in flavour and dissolves easily in liquid compared to natural cocoa powder or cacao powder which is more bitter. So glad the overnight oats were still enjoyed with the yogurt and fruit though ๐Ÿซถโœจ


Archa N.G - Aug. 5, 2024, 6:51 a.m.

Its my breakfast staple now. I add maple syrup instead of dark chocolate. Its so delicious


Serena Stoppato - June 26, 2024, 9:31 a.m.

I'm not normally a sweet tooth for breakfast, but this is really delicious! I'm loving this app!


Anna - May 23, 2024, 9:03 p.m.

I am not a fan of sweet breakfasts but this was absolutely delicious. I added a teaspoon of maple syrup for a touch of sweetness.


Anita - May 14, 2024, 8:07 a.m.

I must say I was a bit sceptical because I didn't spot any evident source of sweetness in the ingredient list but as I tried and was blown away by the delicious taste and texture!
It's just what I need especially at the end of the menstrual cycle when my body needs some extra magnesium ๐Ÿฅฐ

PUL small logo PUL Team - May 15, 2024, 3:30 a.m.

Aww we're so happy to hear that the overnight oats were enjoyed, Anita! Sending lots of love your way ๐Ÿซถ


Lenka - March 17, 2024, 8:42 a.m.

Definitely will do it again.


Sada - Jan. 28, 2024, 5:41 p.m.

I made it with oat milk and peanut butter. Tastes amazing๐Ÿ˜


Rose - Dec. 10, 2023, 4:29 a.m.

Hi, thank you for the amazing recipes. Just a question, this doesnโ€™t have any sweetener?!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Dec. 11, 2023, 1:13 a.m.

Hey there, Rose, the chocolate and strawberries contribute to a sweet taste. Dutch-processed cocoa powder also has a sweeter flavour than other cocoa powders. You're welcome to add an alternative sweetener if you'd like though ๐Ÿ™‚

Annemarieke - Aug. 4, 2023, 9:52 a.m.

Absolutely delicious!
The little bit of shredded chocolate gives it a very rich taste.
I omitted maple syrup and substituted with a mashed banana for sweetness.
LOVE this app!!! โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ


Nohemie - June 22, 2023, 3:08 a.m.

Its good with a little bit of maple sirup ๐Ÿ˜‹


Helen - Feb. 1, 2023, 6:34 p.m.

Hi ๐Ÿ’œ does the nutrition info include the toppings? Xx

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 4, 2023, 3:10 a.m.

Hey Helen, yes it does ๐Ÿ™‚

Anita Pietrzak - July 8, 2024, 12:51 p.m.

Hi! I'm a little surprised, because it has similar caloric amount as Almond Choc Overnight Oats which has less ingredients (and no toppings) ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜Š

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 8, 2024, 2:53 p.m.

Hey Anita! Thanks for the question. The similarity is partly due to the type and amount of ingredients used. For example, the Almond Chocolate Overnight Oats recipe includes 2 tablespoons of nut butter in the base and more fruit. This recipe uses 1 tablespoon of nut butter in the base and another tablespoon as a topping, making the total amount similar. It also includes less fruit as a topping, along with a bit of coconut yogurt. Do let us know if this helps ๐Ÿค—

Proper obsessed with this, what a treat for breakfast!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Dec. 28, 2022, 6:58 a.m.

Aw thank you, Maria!

What a delectable and indulgent breakfast - loved it!


Kassy - Aug. 6, 2022, 7:43 a.m.

Hello,

How long do you think I can keep it on the fridge ? I would like to do couple of overnight oat in advance.

Thanks (I've been eating this receipe almost every day since you post it on youtube 2 years ago).

PUL small logo PUL Team - Aug. 6, 2022, 7:03 p.m.

Hey there, Kassy, we find this one stays best in a mason jar in the fridge for up to 2 days ๐Ÿ™‚

Archa - March 28, 2023, 8:06 a.m.

Hi Kassy,

I batch make it actually. I make 5 different mason jars of this overnight oats every sunday and use it throughout the week l They stay good in fridge. I add the topping only in the morning just before eating


Astrid - May 25, 2022, 7:53 a.m.

I love every recipe from you, but this one I wasn't gaga over

PUL small logo PUL Team - May 25, 2022, 4:26 p.m.

Hey there, Astrid, thank you for taking the time to share - how disappointing! Were all of the ingredients followed as listed? We do find the optional toppings in overnight oats also helpful to make the recipe more personal. So glad the other PUL recipes are being enjoyed in any case and do let us know if you have any other feedback to help PUL improve ๐Ÿ™‚


Zoe Lee - March 28, 2022, 11:07 a.m.

This is heaven!!


Celina - Feb. 18, 2022, 9:24 p.m.

I love this. I didn't even add the chocolate and I used hazelnut butter and this really tastes like Nutella ๐Ÿ˜‹. As a German who grew up having Nutella all the time, this makes me extremely happy ๐Ÿ˜Š. Thanks for the recipe โค๏ธ

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 19, 2022, 4:33 a.m.

Mmm sounds delicious, Celina, we're so glad to hear! Love the personal connection to it ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

It is really awesome for a chocolate lover me !! This has become my new favorite!!


Linda - Oct. 25, 2021, 12:49 a.m.

This is amazing!!! I love overnight oats but my husband and kids have never enjoyed it. This got a massive thumbs up from them all. Iโ€™ve never used hazelnut butter before and itโ€™s my new favourite nut butter. I really enjoyed it topped with strawberries as a nice fresh taste to balance it out.

PUL small logo PUL Team - Oct. 26, 2021, 4:55 a.m.

Woohoo! So glad your family enjoyed it. Strawberries are a lovely topping, Linda ๐Ÿ“


Sil - Sept. 25, 2021, 7:33 a.m.

Great recipe! I love oatmeal and all the chocolate make it even better. Thank you Sadia and the PUL team. Greatings from Argentina.

Aw we appreciate this so much, Sil! Greeting back to Argentina ๐Ÿค—


Ana - Aug. 20, 2021, 7:33 p.m.

I'm not a big fan of oatmeal and I've tried making it many different ways. I finally found a recipe that I truly enjoy. I've already made these overnight oats numerous times and love them. I add fresh blueberries as a topping. Thank you so much, Sadia! Btw, love your cookbook which I use daily. Much love from Serbia! :)

PUL small logo PUL Team - Aug. 23, 2021, 10:50 p.m.

Oh, Ana, we're so thrilled you're enjoying the oatmeal and PUL cookbook! Much love back to Serbia ๐Ÿ’š


Emily - July 27, 2021, 10:33 a.m.

Depending on the sweetness of your 'Nutella', you might want to add something to balance that sweetness. I ended up putting a bunch of thawed frozen berries on top and it was divine. Such a delicious treat and a good choice for "second breakfast".

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 28, 2021, 9:07 p.m.

Thawed berries sound delicious! Thank you, Emily ๐Ÿ˜


Rachel - July 24, 2021, 11:37 p.m.

Delicious, easy, nutritious, satisfying.. what more could you want


Emma - July 12, 2021, 2:42 p.m.

This is absolutely the best breakfast๐Ÿฅฐ was struggling to actually eat breakfast in the mornings, your overnight recipes have been so helpful ๐Ÿ˜Š this and the strawberry cheesecake overnight oats are my favourite!

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 16, 2021, 3:50 a.m.

What a huge compliment, Emma, thank you! So happy you're enjoying the overnight oat recipes ๐Ÿค—


Archa - July 8, 2021, 11:54 p.m.

I have been eating this literally every single morning for the last two months, and yet to get bored of it. I love it so much, since I am the laziest person on earth and lazy to chop chocolate, I just add a spoon of maple syrup. It is wonderful with strawberries on top. Thank you so much <3


Cris S - June 5, 2021, 5:07 p.m.

I'd do this again with a little less cocoa and perhaps a little bit of dried fruits such as raisins for sweetness!

PUL small logo PUL Team - June 5, 2021, 10:11 p.m.

Thank you for the review, Cris! Lovely idea to add some dried fruit for sweetness ๐Ÿค—


Louise Magnusson๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ช - March 29, 2021, 10:10 a.m.

This is heaven for any chocolate lover ๐Ÿ˜
Iโ€™ve tried different topping combinations and so far I prefer this combination to compensate the bittersweet flavour: roasted and salted pumpkin seeds, coconut yoghurt and stewed or thawed strawberries.
Thank you so much for an indulgent Friday breakfast!!

PUL small logo PUL Team - April 2, 2021, 11:09 p.m.

Pumpkin seeds are a lovely topping idea ๐Ÿคค So happy you enjoyed the recipe, Louise!
