Recipe Tips
Here are a few tips and tricks for how to make the most delicious overnight oats!
- Too soupy or too thick? If your oats seem too thick add a bit more milk. Remember that oats soak up a lot of liquid. If your oats are too soupy, just add a few more tablespoons of oats to soak up excess milk.
- Taste test. Everyone likes their oats a little different. Taste your overnight oats before putting them in the fridge. If you like your oats sweeter, add a teaspoon or two more of your sweetener or a pinch of salt to bring out all the flavors.
- You can double or triple overnight oats. If you are making overnight oats for a group of people, these recipes are very easy to double or even triple!
- Meal prep. We love overnight oats because they are easy to prep at the beginning of the week so you have a healthy breakfast for the whole week.
