What Are the Best Oats for Overnight Oats?
I prefer using old-fashioned oats (aka rolled oats). Because the oats sit in the fridge overnight, you want to use a kind that’s chewier and won’t completely turn to mush in the milk.
Tips for the Best Overnight Oats
- I made my overnight oats with blueberries, but any fresh berry will work.
- You’re welcome to use frozen blueberries, if desired. Stir them straight into the oat mixture, no need to thaw them first as they’ll thaw overnight in the fridge.
- If you don’t have almond milk on hand or are allergic, feel free to substitute your milk of choice.
