Instructions

Notes

Keep in the fridge for up to 5 days. The overnight oats feel more fresh when the fruits are added less than 48 hours as they can turn mushy in liquids overtime.
The longer the mixture rests, the thicker it will become. Add more milk as needed.
This recipe makes for 2 small portions or 1 large meal.
