5-ingredient apple cinnamon overnight oats taste just like apple pie! A cozy, well-balanced fall breakfast that preps in 5 minutes and is naturally gluten-free, dairy-free, & vegan!
2tablespoonsof chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
1cupof plant-based milk
Instructions
In a container, glass, or mason jar, add oats, cinnamon, brown sugar, walnuts, apples, and plant-based milk.
Cover with a lid or aluminum foil. If you’re using a mason jar, shake it up until mixed. If you’re using another dish, stir with a spoon until mixed.
Refrigerate overnight (or for 4+ hours).
When you wake up, mix and enjoy chilled! No cooking or heating is necessary—the oats soften overnight.
Notes
Use a wide-mouth jar/cup: That way, you can easily assemble the apple cinnamon overnight oats recipe and eat it directly from the jar/cup.
Adjust the consistency: Add more water or plant-based milk if it’s too thick. If it’s too thin, sprinkle in more oats or some chia seeds and leave it for several minutes to thicken.
Adjust the texture: Shredded apple blends perfectly into the remaining ingredients for apple flavor in every bite. However, for more texture, combine shredded and diced apples.
