Notes
For more lemon flavor, I add a couple spoonfuls of lemon yogurt. However I did not add that to the actual recipe because lemon yogurt is not the easiest to find lately!
- You can really use your favorite milk to make these Blueberry Lemon Overnight Oats. I actually use coconut milk a lot in this recipe. I have also used whole milk and almond milk. All are great!
- Eat your overnight oatmeal straight from the fridge but if that is not for you, warm them up before eating them.
- If you want to use frozen blueberries, you may want to either thaw them first or lighten up the amount of milk slightly. The berries will add some moisture as they thaw and you certainly don't want to overdo it.
- While you can use steel cut oats to make these, I do not suggest it. Steel cut oats will still be very chewy. Some people like that--it's not for me.
