Troubleshooting
Why are my blended oats rubbery?
You blended too long. Blend only for 30 seconds or less.
Why are my blended oats warm?
They can come out of the blender warm from agitation. You can chill them in the refrigerator if you want to eat them cool. They can be eaten warm and at room temperature.
Recipe Tips
- Omit the almond flour or swap it for protein powder.
- Use honey instead of maple syrup for not vegan, or even brown sugar.
- Rolled oats or quick oats are fine; no steel oats.
- To warm, microwave for 15 seconds, stir and repeat if necessary.
- Use a high-protein yogurt to increase protein even higher.
FAQS
It is easier on the digestion to blend overnight oats that include chia seeds, and blending creates a creamier texture but the health levels basically are the same as non-blending overnight oats.
Correct. You can follow this recipe and not blend the oats, just eat them straight after soaking either for 20 minutes or overnight.
