Quantity for over night oats
I cook Quaker Oats overnight and love it but sometimes the pre-measured packets make too too little food. I am interested in making my own servings using cups, but do not know what proportions I should use. For example, I heard on YouTube that 2 cups of oats per 1 cup of milk/water.

Answer 2
This is close to being a recipe request, if it isn't one.
It depends on how you like your oats. The ratio I've used in the past is 1:1 oats/water + other toppings. 2:1 Oats : water sounds wrong. Oats suck up the liquid, so you want more liquid than oats generally.
There are ample resources online because overnight oats are a huge deal right now, and have been for the past few years. The best thing to do would be to start with 1:1 ratio, then adjust according to how that comes out. Sorry if this isn't a great answer, but there are tons of resources available already. :)
