Can I Add Protein Powder?

You can add protein powder to the Greek yogurt layer if you want to increase the protein content. Because different protein powders absorb different amounts of liquid, you may need to add a splash of milk to keep the yogurt layer creamy.

Can I Use More Than One Weetabix?

Absolutely. If you want a larger serving or a thicker Weetbix base, use 2 Weetbix and increase the milk accordingly.

How Long Does Overnight Weetabix Last In The Fridge?

For the best texture and freshness, I recommend enjoying this overnight Weetbix within a couple of days when stored covered in the refrigerator.

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Make the Weetbix base

Place 1 Weetabix into a jar, glass or small container and crush it with your fingers or the back of a spoon.
Add 3 tablespoons of milk and mix until the Weetabix has softened.
Press the mixture down to create an even base.

Make the creamy yogurt layer

In a small bowl, mix the thick Greek yogurt with the chia seeds, peanut butter and honey.
Stir until well combined.
Spoon the yogurt mixture over the Weetabix base and smooth the top.

Make the chocolate peanut butter topping

Add 1 tablespoon of peanut butter, 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder and 1 teaspoon of milk to a small bowl.
Mix until smooth and creamy.
If the mixture is too thick to spread, add a tiny splash more milk.

Add the topping

Spread the chocolate peanut butter mixture over the yogurt layer.
Cover the container and place it in the fridge overnight, or for at least a few hours.

Enjoy

The next morning, take your Peanut Butter Overnight Weetabix out of the fridge and enjoy it cold.
I love adding a little extra peanut butter on top before serving.

Notes

Use thick Greek yogurt.
Thick Greek yogurt gives the yogurt layer a creamy texture and helps the overnight Weetabix hold its layers.

Adjust the milk if needed.
Different brands of Weetabix can absorb liquid slightly differently. If your base looks dry, add another teaspoon or two of milk.

Thin the peanut butter topping.
If your peanut butter is difficult to spread, mix it with the milk and cocoa powder until smooth. Add a little extra milk if necessary.

Let it sit overnight.
While you can enjoy overnight Weetabix after a few hours, leaving it overnight gives the Weetbix plenty of time to soften.

Use a jar or glass container.
A small jar or glass makes it easy to layer the ingredients and store your breakfast in the fridge.
