Notes
How long do overnight oats last?
Overnight oats will keep in the fridge for up to five days. Note that the longer they sit, the softer the oats will get, so the consistency might change over a few days.
Store overnight oats in the container you prepared them in, covered in the fridge.
You can also prepare the baked pear ahead of time and store it in the fridge.
