How to Make Oat Yogurt (With Just 1 Ingredient!)

Ingredients:

1 cup of rolled oats (or steel-cut oats)
3 cups of filtered water

Instructions:

    Soak the oats: Place oats in a bowl, cover with water, and let them soak for 6-8 hours or overnight.
    Blend: Drain the soaked oats and blend them with 3 cups of fresh water until smooth.
    Ferment: Pour the blended oat milk into a clean jar, cover with a breathable cloth, and let it sit at room temperature for 24-48 hours (fermentation process can be quicker in warm places).
    Check for fermentation: Once it develops a tangy, yogurt-like smell, stir well, and refrigerate.

Optional Additions: Enhance the probiotic content by adding a spoonful of probiotic capsules or yogurt starter.
