Place the overnight oats into the fridge overnight, or for a minimum of 2 hours.

Notes
Fridge: Your overnight oats parfaits can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Make sure to keep them in a sealed container, like a mason jar with a lid, to keep them fresh. Remember to add the granola just before eating to maintain its crunch.Lunch-Box Safety: If you're planning to take these overnight oat parfait to school, work, or on a picnic, packing it with an ice pack in an insulated lunch box is a great way to keep it cool and safe for longer. This method will ensure they stay fresh for about 4-5 hours, depending on the outside temperature.
