Best Overnight Oatmeal With Milk Recipes

OVERNIGHT OATS

Overnight Oats image

When soaked overnight in milk, oats become tender and creamy. Unlike oatmeal, the uncooked but softened oats retain a fresh flavor and, of course, they're delicious cold. Soaking dried fruit - use your favorite - alongside the oats sweetens the mixture nicely, but you can stir in additional sugar, maple syrup or honey to taste just before eating. Then, just before you dig in, top it with nuts for an irresistible crunch against the creamy oats.
