Oats is rich in a number of nutrients like fiber, carbohydrates, plant-based protein, and B vitamins. This makes it a powerful meal for gut, heart, and brain health.
Rather than the traditional method of boiling oats, overnight oats are mixed with milk and left overnight in the fridge, allowing the oats and seeds to hydrate. While you're sleeping, overnight oats absorb the liquid, soften up, and form a texture that makes for a great breakfast food.
Old-fashioned rolled oats are the best choice for overnight oats. They soak up the liquid overnight, leaving you with a creamy (but not mushy) texture. Save steel-cut and quick-cooking oats for another time.
Once everything is mixed together, seal your jar (or jars), put it in the fridge, and go get your beauty rest. Overnight oats don't need to be eaten right away the next morning—they're good for about three days after you make them.
