Notes

Keep the oats-to-yogurt ratio close to 1:1 for best texture. Use plain Greek yogurt for higher protein and thicker consistency. Add chia seeds for extra fiber and a more reliable set. Refrigerate at least 4 hours. Avoid instant oats as they become mushy. Adjust sweetness to taste and add toppings just before serving.
