Chocolate and Peanut Butter Oatmeal. You won’t taste a more delicious oatmeal. With the new Chocolate Silk Cashewmilk, this oatmeal is super easy to make. Instead of using water, the oats are cooked in Chocolate Cashewmilk.
I added just a little maple syrup for more sweetness and drizzled some melted peanut butter on top. You can also sprinkle the oatmeal with a few chocolate chips, but the Chocolate Cashewmilk gives the oatmeal plenty of chocolate flavor. Just look at how dark and chocolaty it looks!
Only 4 ingredients and you have yourself a simple, easy breakfast that is perfect for back-to-school breakfasts. If you have teenagers like I do, you may find that they walk around like zombies in the morning and have no interest in eating breakfast before school.
But put a bowl of this Chocolate-Peanut Butter Oatmeal in front of them and they’ll go to school with full tummies. Who can resist the combination of chocolate and peanut butter? Not anyone I know. You’ll have the peace of mind of knowing your kids have had a nutritious breakfast.
Silk Cashewmilk has recently added chocolate and vanilla flavors to its line of cashew milk. The chocolate is irresistibly creamy and tastes delicious on its own or you can use it to make smoothies, hot chocolate, or to replace dairy milk in baked goods. Silk Cashewmilk is lactose-free, dairy-free and has no cholesterol, high-fructose corn syrup, artificial flavors or preservatives.
It has a sweet, but not too sweet flavor with a slight nuttiness that perfectly complements oatmeal. The chocolate flavor has only 90 calories in an 8-ounce serving.

How long will leftovers stay good for in the fridge?
I think they’ll be fine for 2 or 3 days Shawna.
This looks like the ultimate oatmeal! Love the chocolate cashew milk. Chocolate and peanut butter for breakfast sounds like the best way to start the day ๐
Haven’t seen this milk here in Bangkok yet (we get some things from the US but not others), but we do have a Thai brand that’s similar. Will look for this first as I do prefer Silk where possible. If not, I’ll try it with the Thai brand. Thanks for this. Looks awesome ๐
My heart is full. This breakfast looks so satisfying and delish!
Oh My Gawsh, oats cooked IN chocolate cashew milk is a STELLAR idea!! This is amped up oatmeal- I mean chocolate AND peanut butter? YUMM! This oatmeal would get my breakfast hating husband to actually eat breakfast again! Cheers to that! Great post, girl! Cheers! ๐
I’m not a huge oatmeal fan, but this might make me change my mind!
Oh my! That looks so good! My kinda of dessert!
This looks like a decadent dessert rather than breakfast (which is totally my kind of breakfast!!) I love this, I could eat this oatmeal every morning! ๐
