We like layering some of the frosting in between layers of oats, but you can just dollop it all on top if you prefer.View Recipe

18of 20Tres Leches-Inspired Overnight OatsPhotographer: Morgan Hunt Glaze, Food Stylist: Julia Levy, Prop Stylist: Josh HoggleTres leches, which is Spanish for “three milks,” gets its name from the three types of milk that are used to soak the classic cake: whole milk, evaporated milk and sweetened condensed milk. Here, we use those milks to hydrate oats, creating a creamy, satisfying breakfast. A sprinkle of cinnamon adds a nice touch of spice, while sliced strawberries provide a pop of color. Tres leches cake is usually topped with whipped cream—if you want to re-create that creaminess, try topping these oats with some plain yogurt for a breakfast-friendly twist.View Recipe
