A comforting breakfast bowl featuring overnight-soaked oats, cooked until thick and creamy, then mixed with a generous dollop of yogurt for added protein, healthy fat, and an elevated texture. This method helps with digestion and faster cooking.
1. The night before, place 1/2 cup of oats in a glass jar. Add enough water to cover the oats completely. Let them sit and thicken overnight. This soaking process makes them easier to digest and helps achieve a super thick and creamy texture.
2. In the morning, transfer the soaked oats (and any remaining water) to a saucepan.
3. Bring the oats to a boil on the stovetop, stirring with a rubber spatula.
4. Reduce the heat to a simmer and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the oats are thick and creamy.
5. Spoon the warm cooked oats into a bowl.
6. Add a generous dollop (approximately 1/2 cup) of yogurt to the warm oats and stir it all up until well combined. Enjoy immediately.
