Overnight Oats

Overnight_Oats_4The day I discovered overnight oats, must have been my lucky day. Ever since it has been one of my favorite (and for sure most eaten) breakfasts. It’s perfect for everyone with little time or patience in the morning, as you can prepare it the previous night. Plus: no big cooking skills needed!

I often prepare them in a glass jar that I can easily take to go when time runs short. The oats taste especially good with fresh fruits. Add a handful of nuts and you have a healthy and balanced breakfast.

To get very creamy oats, make sure to use fine oats, as they will absorb the liquid better and be super creamy. Enjoy!
