Instructions

Toast the rolled oats in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-4 minutes until fragrant and lightly golden. Let cool.
Add toasted oats, 1/2 cup whole milk, and 2 cups vanilla ice cream to a blender.
Add 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then on medium-high for 20–30 seconds, until thick and smooth. Avoid overblending.
Check consistency. Add 1 tablespoon milk at a time if too thick, or 1/4 cup additional ice cream if too thin.
Pour into a chilled 16-ounce glass and top with 2 tbsp whipped cream.
Serve immediately with a wide straw and long spoon.

Tips

To enhance oat flavor, toast the oats before blending. For a smoother texture, use quick oats instead of rolled.
