Notes
Storage: the overnight oats can be refrigerated in a sealed container for 4-5 days.
Freezing: while this can be frozen, the texture after thawing is not great. It's just not time consuming enough to make enough to freeze for weeks of breakfasts - you're better off taking the two minutes needed to mix from fresh instead.
