Second, shake it up. Let it sit in the fridge overnight.

Then, in the morning, top it off with some sliced bananas, chocolate chips and extra peanut butter. Breakfast can be ready in 30 seconds.

Soaking Oats Overnight can make it Easier for us to Digest

Oats contain a high amount of phytic acid which can act as an inhibitor for important digestive enzymes. Therefore, high phytic acid can reduce the nutrition value in a meal.

However, overnight, the oats swell up and phytic acid is reduced.

Kids Friendly
