FAQs 

What if I don’t have any honey?

You can replace honey with maple syrup for a delicious twist!

What nuts should I use?

Pistachios and hazelnuts are my go-to, but slivered almonds and walnuts are definitely crowd-pleasers.

  1. I love overnight oats. I’ll sometimes add chia seeds, flax seed, cinnamon and/or vanilla to mine. And top it with some almonds, walnuts and/or pecans.
