Overnight oats Recipe for a quick and healthy breakfast with oatmeal

Although the alternatives are numerous, oatmeal still remains the simplest, most varied, and most nutritious breakfast option, especially when we don’t have time for anything else. That’s why it has become a popular variant of overnight oats where you prepare oatmeal the night before, and in the morning you just put fresh toppings in a bowl or jar.

Overnight oats for good digestion

Whole oatmeal contains soluble and insoluble fiber, which contributes to satiety and helps digestion, that is, the movement of food through the digestive tract.They also help the blood’s cholesterol to be decreased.

When preparing overnight oatmeal, there are several things to take into account so that the result is the tastiest and creamiest.

The ratio of liquid to oats should be 2:1. In addition to water, you can optionally add various types of plant-based drinks, such as soy, oat or almond drink, regular milk, milk liquid protein drink, etc. 

If you use additives such as nuts, cocoa beans, grated coconut or almond flakes, and fresh fruit, there is a possibility that these additives will soak up too much liquid overnight and thus be tasteless. So add them in the morning just before consumption.

  1. If you use the incorrect oat-to-milk ratio and fail to add enough milk, part of the oats will soak up all of the liquid before the remainder of the oats can absorb any, therefore producing an unequal texture. While some oats might still be crunchy, others will be rather soft. Conversely, if you add too much milk, the overnight oatmeal will produce a soupy oatmeal combination since the oatmeal can only absorb so much liquid.
  2. Using instant or steel-cut oats: As discussed, rolled oats are ideal for overnight oats. Steel-cut oats are too tough and chewy; instant oats will be too mushy.
  3. Not adding salt: Even though overnight oats are usually sweet, you should still add a little salt! Salt enhances the natural sweetness and general taste of the dish.
  4. Doing it too fast: It takes at least 12 hours to achieve the right color. If you don’t let the oats sit long enough, they won’t soak up all the milk.
  5. Not stirring before serving: A thin layer of milk may form on top of your overnight oats in the jar. This is okay. Be sure to stir the jar well before serving.

Breakfast: The most important meal of the day. I’ve often rushed to make breakfast at the last minute and ended up with just a sad piece of toast or, worse, no food at all! That’s when I found out how great overnight oats are. If you want a tasty and easy breakfast choice that will keep you full, you should try these ones. This recipe reminds me of warm mornings when I would make some before getting comfy with a good book or a new show.
