Cover the bowl or jar with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator to soak overnight, or for at least 6-8 hours.
In the morning, give the oatmeal a good stir. If you prefer a thinner consistency, add a splash more almond milk until your desired texture is reached.

Enjoy your delicious and healthy low sodium overnight oatmeal cold, or gently heat it in the microwave for a warm breakfast.
