FAQs

Can I use dairy milk instead of plant-based milk?

Yes, you can substitute dairy milk if you don’t need the recipe to be plant-based. It will still taste great and maintain the creamy texture.

Do I have to soak the oats overnight?

Soaking overnight softens the oats and melds the flavors, but if you’re short on time, soaking for at least 4 hours will work as well.
