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

Oh honey, I learned this the hard way. Steel-cut oats need way more liquid and time—they'll still be crunchy after overnight soaking. Stick with old-fashioned rolled oats for that perfect creamy-but-not-mushy texture we love.

Can I make this dairy-free?

Absolutely, I've used almond milk and coconut yogurt with fantastic results. The texture might be slightly thinner, but still delicious. Just check that your yogurt alternative isn't too watery.

Why are my oats too thick/soupy?

This usually comes down to measuring. For thick oats, add a splash more milk. If they're runny, try reducing the milk by 1-2 tablespoons next time or adding a teaspoon of chia seeds to thicken.

You bet, While I love them cold, 30-60 seconds in the microwave warms them perfectly. Just remove the lid and stir well halfway through to prevent hot spots.
