I'm a former oatmeal fan and now eat teff instead - suggested by Dr. Mark Hyman. Instant oats are especially glycemic.

I like mixing cooked teff with kefir and fruit to make a porridge

Did you not read the OP? This is for overnight oats. Just water wouldn't work.

I always use water in overnight oats and have for years. Usually with some chopped nuts, and maybe some chopped apples or a few raisins and cinnamon.
