Notes

Make a double or triple batch and portion it out into meal prep containers to store in the freezer for months. They’re great to reheat from frozen or you can thaw them overnight in the refrigerator and reheat them in the morning.
This healthy oatmeal is meant to be served warm but you can enjoy it cold too. Add some Greek yogurt for some extra protein on top or drizzle some maple syrup and add some chopped nuts for some additional sweetness and texture.
You can also make this recipe on the stove or oven. For the oven, portion it out into ramekins or pour the mixture into an oven safe dish and bake at 375 degrees for about 30-45 minutes. The ramekins may cook more quickly, so keep an eye on them. For the stove, cook over medium low heat and cook until the liquid absorbs completely and the oats are tender.
