Prepare this creamy, no-cook breakfast the night before for a quick, healthy, and cozy morning meal reminiscent of apple pie.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy for vegan)
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (optional, for creaminess/protein)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup finely diced fresh apple
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Combine the rolled oats, milk, yogurt (if using), chia seeds, maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt in a jar or container with a lid.
  2. Stir all ingredients well until fully mixed.
  3. Fold in the diced fresh apple.
  4. Seal the container and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight.
  5. In the morning, stir the oats. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash more milk until you reach your desired creamy consistency.
  6. Top with extra cinnamon or chopped nuts before eating.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free option, use certified gluten-free rolled oats.
  • To increase protein, add one scoop of vanilla or unflavored protein powder when mixing the dry ingredients.
  • If you prefer softer apples, you can lightly sauté the diced apple with a pinch of cinnamon for 3 minutes before adding it to the mixture.
