I have done both rolled oats and steel cut. The rolled oats taste like mush, I really did not like it. That said, it was not inedible, but steel cut is much better!
I have never had an issue with the steel cut oats being crunchy. I put the milk in, then oats topped with yogurt and fruit. Be sure to leave them in the fridge overnight…the longer they are in the fridge the softer they get.
I am confused…..it says 1 blue container of dry steel cut oats, but then below that when you give the container count, it says 1 yellow? HELP! Do you use the blue or yellow container to measure your uncooked oats?
What’s the consistency of these overnight steel cut oats? I’m really late to the overnight oat train, only a month ago I tried for the very first time…the recipe called for rolled oats, but since I’m in the process of giving up instant oats, my alternative was steel cut. And I’d have to say, nothing happened overnight…I literally felt like I put oats in milk and had it for cereal the next morning. I was expecting a creamy consistency…but I got crunch.
Congratulations on giving up instant oats! With the steel cut oats it has sort of a chewy texture. I have found that the longer I leave them in the fridge the softer they get.
I did sign up for a coach, but didn’t know how to use her or what even to ask. Can I change coaches and what is the advantage of having one. Also, I just followed Autumn’s YouTube channel, but how do you follow a blog?
You will just need to contact Coach relations at (800) 240-0913 or at CoachRelations@teambeachbody.com
You will need to give them my coach id which is 630590. The advantage is having someone help keep you motivated and encourage you. I run challenge groups on facebook where I give meal plans, recipes and support to help you keep going. To follow a blog there should be a button to follow. Not sure about Autumn’s. I am just finishing up a challenge group and will be starting a new one. I would love for you to join me!

This is made with Steel cut oats. Do not use instant. I have not tried it with old fashioned rolled oats either. I prefer steel cut oats since they are less processed.
I also make over night oats with regular oats , milk , fruit, nuts , cinnamon, chia seeds and agave. I love it. So fun to change them up so you don’t get tired of same flavor.
I made this using steel cut oats and added a banana. It was so yummy! I’ve also made it with a frozen berry mix. Both are very good! Thanks for this idea. I make it often for my breakfast.
Awesome recipe! Thank you 🙂 The only thing I did different was added 1/2 a banana w/the strawberries and 1 tsp of honey (I got a sweet tooth) – Delicious!
Instant is going to be very processed and usually has sugar and other things added. Steel-Cut is les processed and much healthier. It looks much different too.
I would use this recipe (found in pinterest) BUT WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT RED BLUE YELLOW…? Like is this supposed to be something people just know?… guess I’ll click to the next recipe. Why make it more complicated than it needs to be instead of simply telling measurements ?? So confused

For the oats 1 blue dry equals 1 yellow once cooked or soaked overnight since they expand.
