Notes
Storing Instructions: Overnight oats will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days, depending on the freshness of your milk.
Add Protein Powder: Stir in a scoop of vanilla protein powder and a splash of extra milk.
Yogurt: if using Greek yogurt, you may want to add a little extra milk.
Gluten Free: Make sure to use certified gluten free oats.
To Eat Overnight Oats Immediately, without the "overnight" rest, use quick oats, a little less milk, and allow mixture to sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes-1 hour.
