It&#8217;s a classic combination that makes you feel cozy and warm inside.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Salt:<\/strong> Just a dash of salt enhances the flavors of the overnight oats. If you&#8217;re cutting back on sodium, feel free to skip the salt.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chopped nuts:<\/strong> Nuts can be very polarizing in sweet recipes, and they&#8217;re optional here. If you add nuts, they&#8217;ll give your oats another element of crunch and earthy flavor.
