Tips for the Purely Elizabeth Overnight Oats

• Use a Mason jar: They’re spill-proof, reusable, and just the right size for mixing and storing your overnight oats. Plus, they’re great for grabbing on the go if you’re rushing out the door. No spills, no mess, and they’re easy to clean—what’s not to love?
• Adjust the consistency: If your oats turn out thicker than you’d like, simply add a splash of milk or your preferred liquid before eating. Stir it well, and you’ll have perfectly creamy oats in no time. On the flip side, if it’s too thin, add a bit more granola or chia seeds for extra thickness.
• Experiment with liquids: Don’t limit yourself to just milk or water. Coconut water adds a light, refreshing taste, while green tea can give your oats a subtle earthy flavor. You can even mix two liquids, like almond milk and a splash of juice, for something truly unique.
• Prep in batches: Life gets busy, and prepping several jars at once can be a lifesaver. Line up 3-5 jars, measure your ingredients, and mix them all in one go. Not only does this save time, but it also gives you a variety of flavors ready for the week. Pro tip: label the jars with the toppings or mix-ins so you don’t forget what’s inside!

FAQs About Purely Elizabeth Overnight Oats

1. Can I use water instead of milk?

Absolutely! While milk gives a creamier and richer texture to the oats, water is a great alternative if you’re looking to keep it light or reduce calories. Plus, you can always boost the flavor with a dash of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon when using water.

2. How long can overnight oats be stored?

They’re best eaten fresh within 3-4 days, but you can stretch it to 5 days if stored in an airtight container in the fridge. Just give them a good stir before eating and check for any changes in smell or texture to be sure they’re still good.

3. Do I have to cook the oats first?

Nope! That’s the beauty of overnight oats. The soaking process does all the work for you, softening the oats to a perfectly creamy consistency without any cooking. If you’re using steel-cut oats, though, you might want to soak them a little longer or partially cook them before soaking.

4. Are Purely Elizabeth products gluten-free?

Yes! All of Purely Elizabeth’s granola and oatmeal products are certified gluten-free, making them safe for anyone with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease. They’re also non-GMO and made with organic ingredients for added peace of mind.

5. Can I heat overnight oats?

Sure thing! If you prefer a warm breakfast, just microwave your overnight oats for 30-60 seconds. You can also heat them on the stove over low heat, stirring occasionally. Add a splash of milk or water while warming to maintain that creamy texture.
