Storage and reheating
- Fridge: up to 3 days
- Freezer: not recommended
- Keep chilled and eat cold; do not reheat because the dairy can loosen and the berries will soften.
Ingredient substitutions
Rolled oat
- Quick oat: Use for a softer texture that thickens faster than rolled oat.
Cottage cheese
- Small curd cottage cheese: Choose this for a smoother spoonful with the same high protein character.
Milk
- Water: Use only if needed for a lighter base, though the oats will taste less creamy.
Berry
- Frozen berry: Thaw briefly or add frozen before chilling so the juices blend into the oats.
Honey
- Sugar: Use less by weight because it lacks the floral moisture and aroma of honey.
