Notes
These aren't super sweet. If you want extra sweetness, add 1-2 tbsp pure maple syrup or brown sugar with the wet ingredients.
If you like your overnight oats warm, heat them in the microwave in 30-second intervals until warmed through, or heat over low heat on the stovetop.
Allergy notes and ingredient swaps:
Gluten-free: Make sure you're using certified GF oats.
Dairy-free: Use your favorite non-dairy milk.
Applesauce: Substitute mashed banana.
Pumpkin: Use mashed sweet potato or butternut squash instead.
Flaxseed: Use chia seeds (no need to grind them) or simply omit them.
