Cold Oatmeal Cereal

1/4 - 1/3 c oats (steel cut or rolled), or a combination of oats, rye flakes, millet, or other whole grain
1 Tbsp plain yogurt
Milk (enough just to cover grains; any kind of milk is fine)

Combine in a cereal bowl. Cover and refrigerate overnight.


In the morning, stir in any mix-ins. Some of my favorites include:


  • Chia seeds and ground flax seeds
  • Fresh or frozen fruit (thawing is optional)
  • Canned pumpkin
  • Unsweetened, shredded coconut
  • Toasted nuts
  • Jams or jellies
  • Applesauce or apple butter (preferably without added sweeteners)
  • Spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, cloves, and/or cardamom
Pour in additional milk if needed for desired consistency.
