One of the greatest selling points of overnight oats are their nearly endless array of flavor varieties. What makes them so valuable as a breakfast option is that you never know when inspiration for a new flavor will come to you. Case in point, these Banana Mango overnight oats. I wish I had some wonderfully inspirational story featuring warm island breezes, or being bitten by a radioactive mango… but it’s none of that. I think this one was just as…

I’ve probably experimented with 40 or 50 recipes (and counting) and I’m forever tweaking even my favorites, the majority of which are based off of (surprise!) famous desserts! Black Forest cake was a natural dessert to translate into an overnight oats recipe. The combination of deep chocolate…
