Notes

  • If you are not vegan, you can use honey instead of maple syrup. You can also use agave nectar.
  • Use any type of milk you would like for this recipe such as cashew, oat, or dairy
  • Add chocolate chips to this recipe for a richer flavor
  • Add yogurt for extra protein
  • Be sure to allow the oats to sit for at least two to three hours if you're wanting to enjoy them sooner.
  • Use gluten-free oats for a gluten-free diet.
  • We like to use peanut butter, but feel free to use any nut butter such as cashew or almond.
  • If you have a nut allergy, omit the peanut butter and substitute it with sunflower seed butter.
  • Prepare these oats with any type of fresh fruit or berries.
