Pinch of salt

3. 3. Mix Thoroughly: Stir well until no clumps remain.

Notes
The right oats matter: always use old-fashioned rolled oats, not instant. Cool your coffee completely before adding to maintain texture. Mix thoroughly to avoid clumps. Adjust consistency with extra milk if needed. Sweeten to taste. Prepping multiple jars at once saves time. For best texture, let them chill overnight. Dairy-free options work perfectly.
