How to Prepare the Overnight Porridge with Greek Yogurt
In a bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, chia seeds, and a teaspoon of honey. Mix well until you get a homogeneous mixture.
In a cup, pour the oats and cover them with coffee, letting them absorb for a few moments.
Place the yogurt over the oats and level it.
In another bowl, mix the unsweetened cocoa, a teaspoon of honey, and the water until you form a smooth cream.
Pour the cocoa cream over the yogurt, leveling the surface.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator overnight.
In the morning, mix lightly or enjoy in layers.
Storage
The overnight porridge keeps in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours when well covered. It’s ideal to prepare the night before for a quick and ready breakfast.
