Overnight Oats 2 articles

Soaking rolled oats overnight in milk, yogurt or another liquid creates overnight oats without stovetop cooking. Chia seeds, fruit, nut butter and spices are common additions, and the finished texture is cold, creamy and spoonable. The make-ahead jar or cup format makes them easy to portion for breakfast. Unlike hot oatmeal, the oats hydrate gradually during refrigeration, so liquid ratio and soak time shape texture while toppings determine much of the protein, fiber and added sugar.
