  1. My favorite!

    I was never a huge fan of oats in general, but after trying these, I can’t get enough of this recipe. It’s my go-to morning snack!

    1. Kacey,
      Thank you so much! This is wonderful feedback and it totally made our day. So grateful for your review 🙂

  2. I’ve tried overnight oats before and hated them, it felt so bland. But this was AMAZING. I knew once I combined everything together and took a sniff it was gonna be so good. I woke up this morning so excited to eat it and it didn’t disappoint!

  3. Amazing!

  4. I so enjoyed these oats, so convenient and a wonderful blend of warming spices for a chilly morning!! Next time however I will add more liquid to make a softer mixture as I found it a bit dense. It’s something to look forward to every morning!!?

  5. I think I’m going to try making a batch for an entire week – from what I understand, you just make several jars with the dry ingredients and another container with all the wet ingredients, then the night before add a portion of the wet ingredients to one of the dry ingredient jars. Easy breakfast every morning!

    1. Hi Nick!
      You could certainly do it that way, or if you wanted to mix them in advance, they can last 3 days in the refrigerator. Thanks for posting!! 🙂
