Mornings are rough, but these espresso-infused overnight oats make them tolerable. Creamy oats soak up bold coffee while a crunchy crumble adds sweet rebellion. It’s dessert disguised as breakfast, but who’s complaining? No cooking, no waiting—just mix, chill, and devour. The coffee-sugar crumble brings the drama, adding a crispy contrast to the velvety oats. If caffeine had a soulmate, it would be this.
