Prepare this creamy, no-cook breakfast the night before for a quick, healthy grab-and-go meal that tastes like apple pie. Perfect for busy mornings.

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 protein boost)
  • 1/2 small apple, finely diced
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup or sweetener of choice
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Combine the rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt (if using), diced apple, chia seeds, cinnamon, maple syrup, and salt in a jar or container with a lid.
  2. Stir all ingredients together until well mixed. Make sure the oats are fully submerged in the liquid.
  3. Seal the container tightly and place it in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight.
  4. In the morning, stir the oats. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash more milk until you reach your desired creamy texture.
  5. Top with extra cinnamon, nuts, or fresh apple slices before eating.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free option, use certified gluten-free rolled oats.
  • To make this recipe vegan, use a plant-based milk like almond or soy milk and omit the Greek yogurt, or substitute with a dairy-free yogurt.
  • Add 1 scoop of vanilla or unflavored protein powder with the dry ingredients for a protein packed breakfast.
