Absolutely. Use plant-based milk, skip the butter, and opt for maple syrup or agave instead of sugar for a fully vegan version.

Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave with a little extra milk or water, stirring frequently to maintain texture.

Yes, portion cooled oatmeal into freezer-safe containers for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat with liquid.

How can I reduce the carbs in this recipe?

Swap half the oats for chia seeds or flaxseed meal, use unsweetened almond milk, and omit sugar or use a low-carb sweetener.
