The oatmeal can also be made in an alternative way, with the use of overnight oats, instead of rolled oats. To make oatmeal this way, take a jar and combine oats and water. Refrigerate the oats overnight and consume in the morning after topping them with banana and chocolate hazelnut spread. You can also replace banana with seasonal fruits of your choice. Additionally, if you are not a vegan, you can choose to soak oats in milk or half milk and half water.
