Cherry Chocolate Overnight Oats

August 16, 2014May 30, 2017 Melissa King 27 Comments

Cherry Chocolate Overnight Oats. Cherries and chocolate go so well together and that is why I made these cherry chocolate vegan overnight oats.

If you have been following me for a while, you know I love overnight oats. Overnight oats are some of the easiest breakfasts you will ever make.

Overnight oats are also known as oats in a jar. There is no cooking involved and it’s a breakfast that will keep you full into lunch.

This cherry chocolate overnight oats recipe is perfect for all you chocolate lovers. It’s like eating dessert for breakfast!

This easy overnight oats recipe is vegan and gluten free. You can eat it cold, or heat it up in the morning. I personally love making these with steel cut oats and eating them cold.

It reminds me of the boxed cereal that I used to eat. I used dried cherries in my recipe, but you can use fresh as well. I hope you enjoy.

Cherry Chocolate Energy Bites. They are so good! I know I have a lot of energy bites to choose from on my blog. I am a big fan of no bake cookies and healthy energy bites.

I picked up some dried cherries the other day and that is how I had the inspiration to make these cherry energy bites.

These healthy energy bites would make a great pre or post workout snack. In fact I just had a couple of them after my yoga class.

These cherry chocolate energy bites are vegan and gluten free. If you wanted to make them grain free, you might be able to use sunflower seeds in place of the oats.

This no bake recipe is super easy to make! It’s a great recipe to do with your young kids.

Quinoa Brownies that are vegan and gluten free!! Yes I did it. I made quinoa chocolate brownies. After I made the quinoa cookies and they were a hit, I thought I would experiment with quinoa brownies.

I promise you these brownies will not disappoint! They are really yummy and even easier to make! If you like healthy brownie recipes, you may also like this and this.

These delicious brownies are vegan, gluten free and grain free. Quinoa is technically a seed and not a grain. You would never be able to tell there was quinoa in these brownies.

These healthier brownies also come with a punch of protein. Did you know that quinoa is one of the few plant based, complete proteins? I hope you enjoy these brownies as much as I did.

Homemade Vegan Twix Bars

Twix bars used to be my favorite, so naturally I had to come up with a recipe for vegan twix bars. These homemade twix bars are not only vegan, but they are also gluten free. These vegan twix bars only contain 9 ingredients and are super easy to make! I used chocolate chips for the coating, but you could also use my 3 ingredient chocolate recipe.

I have to be honest. These don’t taste exactly like twix bars, but they are still very delicious. I had a hard time keeping my hands off them! I hope you enjoy them as well.

I made you some vegan chocolate cheesecake. 🙂 Yes that is right. Cheesecake can be vegan, and this vegan chocolate cheesecake recipe proves it. It’s the perfect little bite sized portion that will not leave you feeling guilty.

In addition to being vegan, these cheesecakes are also gluten free. The chocolate part is very rich and delicious so a little will satisfy your sweet tooth. If you don’t want to make these into mini cheesecakes, you can most certainly make 1 large cheesecake. You may have to double the batch though.

Double Chocolate Ice Cream. Yesterday, I asked my daughter what she wanted to help me make. She requested chocolate ice cream.

She is a huge chocolate fan, so of course we had to make it extra chocolatey ice cream! Homemade ice cream is so much better than store bought. You can control the ingredients.

This ice cream is also packed full of chocolate chips. A must try for any chocolate lover. My husband and older daughter are the true chocolate lovers in our family.

My baby girl and I are vanilla fans. This ice cream recipe is vegan, gluten free and dairy free. I hope you enjoy it. You can make this in about 20 minutes! If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can always pour this into popsicle molds
