Notes
- Mix well before chilling: Make sure all the oats are coated with liquid so they soften evenly overnight.
- Adjust sweetness: Taste before chilling and add more honey (or maple syrup) if you prefer a sweeter, more cookie-like flavor.
- Add-ins for extra cookie dough vibes: Stir in a spoonful of peanut butter, almond butter, or cashew butter for a rich, cookie dough-like texture.
- Make it creamier: Use a higher-fat milk like whole milk, oat milk, or coconut milk for a richer, dessert-like consistency.
- Don’t skip the overnight chill: The oats need time to absorb the liquid fully and soften. A minimum of 8–12 hours is best for the ideal texture.
- Serve your way: Enjoy straight from the fridge for a refreshing breakfast, or warm gently in the microwave.
