Can I use steel-cut oats instead of rolled oats?

I've tried it - steel-cut oats need way more liquid and time (like 24+ hours) to soften up. Stick with old-fashioned rolled oats for that perfect creamy texture. Save the steel-cut for stovetop porridge.

Is this recipe gluten-free?

Absolutely - just make sure to use certified gluten-free oats. Regular oats can sometimes get cross-contaminated during processing if that's a concern for you.

Why does my mixture look too thick in the morning?

No panic, Just stir in a splash of milk until it reaches your ideal consistency. The chia seeds can be thirsty little things.
