Notes
- Stir well before chilling: Make sure the cottage cheese, milk, honey, oats, and chia seeds are fully mixed so the oats set evenly.
- Let it chill long enough: Overnight gives the oats the best texture, but at least 4 hours is enough if you need them sooner.
- Blend for a smoother texture: If you do not want the cottage cheese curds as noticeable, blend the cottage cheese first before mixing.
- Adjust the thickness: If the oats are too thick after chilling, stir in a splash of milk before serving.
- Add toppings right before eating: This keeps fruit, granola, and other toppings fresh and gives the oats the best texture.
