Overnight Oats with Peanut Butter, Chocolate Chips and Coconut image

I'm about to make your kids absurdly happy. First of all, this is basically a jar of nourishment for breakfast, in a dessert costume. I'd never realized that overnight oats are a ridiculously easy way to swindle your littles into eating something, dare I say--nutritious? And have their dang chocolate chips, too!

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats

1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, toasted
2 cups whole or low-fat milk

Cinnamon, for dusting

Steps:

  • Pour 1/3 cup oats each into four half-pint mason jars. Top each with 1 tablespoon each peanut butter, chocolate chips and coconut. Pour about 1/2 cup milk into each jar, covering the oats. Close the lid on each jar and chill in the fridge overnight.
