FAQs

1. Can I use instant oats instead of rolled oats?

Instant oats can be used, but the texture will be softer. Rolled oats provide a better chew and texture for overnight oats.

3. What type of milk works best for this recipe?

Any milk works well, including almond, soy, oat, or dairy milk. Use whichever you prefer.

4. How can I make this recipe lower in calories?

To reduce the calories, you can use less hazelnut butter and opt for a low-calorie sweetener or skip it entirely.

5. Can I skip the topping, or are there other topping options?

The topping is optional! You can try topping with fresh fruit, banana slices, or a sprinkle of cocoa nibs for added flavor.

6. How do I store overnight oats?

Store them in an airtight container or jar in the fridge for up to 4 days. Add fresh toppings just before serving to maintain their texture.

7. Can I use a different nut butter?

Yes, you can replace hazelnut butter with almond or peanut butter for a different flavor profile.

8. Can I use a different type of chocolate?

You can use any type of chocolate, but dark chocolate is recommended for a richer, more intense flavor.

9. How long do overnight oats last in the fridge?

Overnight oats can last up to 4 days in the refrigerator. They’re best eaten within 2-3 days for the best texture.

10. Can I add protein powder to this recipe?
