A comforting and healthy overnight oats recipe inspired by apple pie flavors, made without added sugar and perfect for a nourishing breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (45g) rolled oats (old-fashioned preferred)
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) milk of choice (dairy or plant-based such as almond, oat, or cashew milk)
  • 1 medium apple (about 150g), peeled and diced (Fuji or Gala recommended)
  • 1/4 cup (60g) Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla; coconut yogurt for dairy-free)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds (optional)
  • 1 tsp maple syrup or honey (optional)
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Peel and chop the apple into small, even 1/4-inch cubes. Toss immediately with lemon juice to prevent browning (about 5 minutes).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and chia seeds if using. Stir well to evenly distribute spices (about 3 minutes).
  3. Fold the diced apples into the oat mixture. If desired, add maple syrup or honey and stir gently.
  4. Spoon the mixture into a 12-ounce (350 ml) mason jar or airtight container. Seal tightly.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours or up to 24 hours to allow oats to soak and apples to soften.
  6. In the morning, stir gently. Add a splash of milk if too thick. Optionally top with extra apple slices, cinnamon, or chopped nuts before serving.

Notes

Use sweeter, firm apples like Fuji or Gala to avoid mushiness. Grating apples instead of dicing creates a creamier texture. Add extra milk if oats are too thick in the morning. Freshly ground cinnamon and nutmeg enhance flavor. Store leftovers in the fridge up to 3 days; stir in milk before eating if thickened.
