Common questions
Can I skip the resting time?
The rest lets the seeds or oats absorb liquid. Follow the minimum rest in the method; serving it earlier will give a different texture.
How should I use the calories and macros?
The card lists estimates for its stated serving size. Use the listed ingredients and portions as the basis; changing brands, substitutions, toppings, or sides can change the values.
