Yes you can use rolled oats instead of steel cut oats. They will soak up the same and be delicious!
If you don’t have pumpkin spice, just adjust with cinnamon and nutmeg and you’ll be fine!
These steel cut oats will still have a little bite to them. Make sure you give them ample time to soak by making it at lunchtime or so the day before you intend on eating them.
