No-bake oat porridge, also called overnight oats, is a filling and healthy breakfast, perfect for those who have little time in the morning but do not want to miss the pleasure of a wholsome breakfast. It takes a minute to prepare. done the night before and left in the refrigerator overnight (hence the name), in the morning you just have to dip the spoon and eat!


At first I was very skeptical as it always seemed like an unappetizing concoction to me but, since I try to follow a as healthy as possible diet, this has become one of my favorite breakfasts, it fills me without being heavy at all and feels like eating a dessert. There are a thousand variations and it's fun to try a different combination of flavors every time.


Tips

I recommend using vegetable milk because it is lighter and having, in most cases, a specific taste (eg coconut, hazelnut, almond), it enriches the flavor. For this recipe, the riper the banana, the sweeter the oeats will be. It is very important not to omit the pinch of salt, considering that the base ingredient is oats which do not have a marked flavor, the salt helps to emphasize the taste and really makes a difference.


Happy baking!
