Notes
Use rolled oats for best texture; avoid instant oats as they get mushy. Adjust liquid ratio for preferred consistency. Add toppings like fresh fruit or nuts in the morning to avoid sogginess. Can be prepared up to 3 days in advance. For vegan option, use plant-based yogurt and replace honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
