Step 1
In a small container, combine the oats, coconut, pecans, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Pour in about 1/3 cup of milk and give everything a good stir. Cover the container and pop it in the fridge to soak overnight or for at least 8 hours. When you’re ready to eat, stir in a tablespoon of milk to loosen things up a bit. Enjoy your creamy, flavorful oats!

How to serve
Top your oats with fresh fruit like sliced bananas or berries to add natural sweetness. A drizzle of honey or maple syrup works well too. For extra crunch, sprinkle additional toasted pecans or shredded coconut on top.
Storage & leftovers
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. When reheating, add a splash of milk or water to loosen the oats and warm gently on the stove or in the microwave. Avoid freezing as the texture may change.
