Chef's Note
For the best texture, use traditional rolled oats rather than quick oats or steel-cut oats. The rolled variety absorbs liquid perfectly while maintaining a pleasant chewiness. You can also prepare a custom spice blend with cardamom, nutmeg, or ginger to vary the flavor profile throughout the week.
