Storage and reheating

Ingredient substitutions
Rolled oat
- Certified gluten free rolled oat: The texture remains close to regular rolled oats.
Chocolate protein powder
- Vanilla protein powder with cocoa: Use the same weight and keep the cocoa in the recipe for a chocolate flavor.
Peanut butter
- Powdered peanut butter: Use less by weight because it is drier and lower in fat.
Milk
- Water: The oats will be less creamy and slightly less rich.
Cocoa
- Chocolate protein powder: Use only if extra cocoa is unavailable, noting the chocolate taste will be milder.
Salt
- No salt: Omit for a lower sodium version.
