Bask in everything there is to love about horchata coupled with hearty, nourishing rolled oats. These overnight oats lean on the nuttiness of chopped almonds and the mild sweetness of rice milk to recreate the flavors of your favorite horchata. Designed to be made as a big batch and portioned out every morning, this quick treat makes an ideal and filling breakfast. The puffed rice cereal might be listed as optional, but really, it’s sort of essential.
