Almond milk is a classic in overnight oats. Cashew milk, coconut milk, or regular cow’s milk can also be used!

The thickness of overnight oats can be adjusted by adding more or less milk. If the oats are too thick when you take them out of the refrigerator, feel free to add a little more milk!

The sweetener

There are many ways to sweeten overnight oats. Maple syrup is a great option! Honey, stevia, or raw sugar are also options for sweetening overnight oats.

Overnight oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. They are typically eaten cold, but can also be warmed up and taken on-the-go!

TIP: Store your overnight oats in mason jars with these lids!
