Notes

Oats: I buy Quaker old fashioned rolled oats or Bob’s red mill, both are gluten free, always check the label to make sure though.
Plant milk: I prefer the taste of soy milk for my oatmeal and it is higher in protein but of course use your favorite, oat, pea, almond milk, etc..!
Recipe does not work with steel cut oats (takes more liquid and longer soak time) or instant oatmeal (too mushy in my opinion)
I always make in a bowl unless I will be transporting it (school or work) then I will use a mason jar or sealable container
Store: will keep covered in fridge for 5 days
I use 16 oz mason jars (holds 2 cups) work perfectly for 1 serving of overnight oats with toppings, 8 oz are too small.
