Notes
Best Oats - Make sure to use old fashioned rolled oats for this recipe. Instant and steel cut oats won't work well, because they absorb liquid at a different rate.
Best Milk - Any kind of milk works, although 2% or whole will give you the creamiest results.
Vegan / Dairy Free - For vegan oats, use your favorite plant based milk, such as almond milk, oat milk, coconut milk, or soy milk.
Multiple Servings - To make multiple servings at one time, line up jars on your counter. Then measure and add the ingredients assembly line-style. Mix and refrigerate as directed.
