Notes
TO STORE: Store leftover oats in an airtight container for 4-5 days. TO FREEZE: Let the oats cool, place them in a freezer-safe container, and freeze for 6 months. TO REHEAT: Heat leftover oatmeal in a microwave-safe bowl for 30-40 seconds. I recommend adding a splash of liquid to rehydrate the oats first. Variations
Topping and mix-in ideas: Chia seeds, cinnamon, nutmeg, and other fresh fruit. I added cinnamon and chia seeds to this batch (as pictured).
Add protein: Top the oats with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a scoop of vanilla protein powder. If you add the protein powder, plan on needing extra liquid to compensate.
Meal prep: Make the oats as directed, doubling the recipe as needed. Once they’re done, portion them into containers and place them in the fridge with the lids off. Once the oats have cooled, put the lids on.
