What is the Best Liquid for Overnight Oats?
The best liquid for overnight oats is a matter of personal preference. If you want your overnight oats to be creamier and more flavourful, then milk and plant-based milk is a good choice. However, if you do not like the taste of milk, you can use water as an alternative. There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to choosing the right liquid for overnight oats so we recommend experimenting to find what you like best.
Can you Prepare Overnight Oats with Hot Liquid or Does it Have to be Cold?
As overnight oats are served cold in the morning, overnight oats are typically prepared with cold liquid, such as milk or water. The oats are soaked in a liquid overnight in the fridge so that the oats can absorb the liquid, therefore no heating up is necessary.

For traditional overnight oats it can be tricky to achieve the desired consistency and flavour. Thankfully, Linwoods Overnight Oats make the preparation process easy so you can make the perfect creamy overnight oats every time.
What is the perfect overnight oats ratio?
The perfect overnight oats ratio is 1:2 which means 1-part oats and 2-parts liquid. Here is the simply overnight oats recipe using this ratio:

- 100ml-125ml of your favourite milk
How long do you need to refrigerate overnight oats for?
We recommend refrigerating your overnight oats for 8-12 hours to give the oats enough time to soften and absorb the milk. If you are limited for time, soaking the oats for as little as 3-4 hours is suitable but the longer you soak them the creamier and more delicious the texture will be.
