Bounty Overnight Oats (Chocolate & Coconut)
Chocolate and Coconut - a match made in Heaven!
Whenever I put a box of celebrations in the office for my colleagues, the little bounty bars are gone first! That's why there had to be an ode to chocolate coco in my little Overnight Oats series in February.
My current obsession is - WARNING - Proteinnutella *! Yes, that's right! There is chocolate cream with almost no sugar and a good portion of protein. For those who do not want to give up on their morning Nutellasemmel, the Protein Nut Choc Body Attack * is the perfect solution. Although the calories remain approximately the same (500 kcal/100 g), but the chocolate cream contains, in contrast to Nutella only 2 g of sugar per 100 g of product! I hardly recognize a difference to the original taste. As Oat's topping, the creamy-firm consistency is a bit tricky, but to spread it better, I just put it in the microwave for a few seconds. Or I take some chocolate cream with a spoon, put it on the warm oats and let the cream run away. I have to take 2 glasses of it with my friend to Singapore, because I've been raving about it for so long!
Speaking of running dry: I'm running into the mouth while writing 😀 #foodbloggerproblems
If you have no coconut protein powder at home , you can just use more coconut yoghurt. This changes the macros (carbs/protein/fat distribution of the meal), but then you do not need to buy a kilo bag of whey. But be careful that your yogurt does not contain too much sugar, otherwise your stomach will begin to rumble way too soon!
