    I've been on a huge oatmeal kick for a few years now. Is it weird that oatmeal might be one of my favorite foods? No matter if I make a steamy bowl of steel cut oats in the morning or make it ahead of time, like with these overnight oats, it's always a great start to my day! Taking 5 minutes to whip up some healthy apple pie overnight oats before bed is just one thing you can check off of your to-do list ahead of time. You won't have to wake up early to fix breakfast or worry about rushing out the door hungry.

    Why You'll Love Apple Pie Overnight Oats

    For busy mornings, having a healthy breakfast made ahead is key. You'll love this apple pie version because they're:

    • Easy to make with only a handful of simple ingredients, and 5 minutes of active prep time.
    • Healthy. These oats have everything you need in a balanced breakfast - protein, complex carbs for a steady stream of energy, healthy fat, and a serving of fruit! They're also low in sugar.
    • Delicious! Full of warm fall spices and grated apple, these oats taste like apple pie, but healthy and easy!

    How To Make Apple Pie Overnight Oats

    1. Use a large hole grater to grate the apple.
    2. Whisk the yogurt, milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, maple syrup and chia seeds in a mason jar or other container with a lid.
    3. Add the oats and grated apple. Stir to combine.
    4. Cover and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 6 hours.
    5. Give it a stir in the morning and enjoy warm or cold!

    Tips & Ingredient Substitutions

    • Use certified gluten-free oats if necessary.
    • If you don't have chia seeds, you can use ground flaxseed or just omit them.
    • For sweeter oatmeal, increase the maple syrup to 2 or 3 teaspoons.
    • If you prefer a hot breakfast, you can heat these up in the microwave for 30-60 seconds.

    How Long Do Overnight Oats Last In The Refrigerator?

    Overnight oats will last a good 2-3 days (or more!) in the refrigerator, so feel free to make a few servings at once.

      Had the consistency of normal porridge with mouldy prices of apple. Cinnamon slightly overbearing but that may have been my fault. Tried hot and cold but still made me gip. Would not recommend. Will stick to granola and yoghurt thankyou very much!
