Notes

    • You can add your choice of fresh fruits.
    • For the liquids you can add plant-based milk or dairy milk. You can also use plant based yogurt. If you use yogurt then you will need to add some more water.
    • Always remember to refrigerate and don’t keep at room temperature. As this can ferment your overnight oats.
    • Feel free to skip the sweetener or you can add your choice of sweetener.
    • The recipe can be scaled easily.
