Breakfast. For me, it really is the most important meal of the day because it sets the mood. I started waking up earlier to cook breakfast for myself every morning in December of 2015, and I haven't looked back since. I'm not a fan of sweet things in the morning; sugary pastries just make me feel gross and crave sugar the rest of the day (for this reason, I usually reserve dessert solely for my last meal). But I would eat these oats for dessert any night without hesitation. They are just that good. You can tell the difference between artificially sweet and naturally sweet and these oats are almost entirely naturally sweet. I use steel cut oats in this recipe for a nuttier flavor and chewier texture. You can, of course, use old fashioned oats (and probably instant oats for that matter), but I really think steel cut oats make a world of difference. As for the granola, you can choose your favorite variety (I love Purely Elizabeth granolas because they are chock-full of wholesome seeds and grains, low in sugar, and come in perfect clumps). Same goes for the nut butter; you can have this same oatmeal every day of the week, but each nut butter combination will produce a completely new experience. Enjoy! Nutty Cocoa Berry Overnight Oats
