  1. Prepare the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats with milk, yogurt (if using), honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Mix well until fully combined.
  2. Add Fruits and Nuts: Stir in your choice of fruits and nuts to the mixture. Feel free to add as much or as little as you like.
