Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy like almond or soy)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1/2 cup finely diced apple (about 1 small apple)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare your jar or container: Select a jar or container with a lid that holds at least 12 ounces.
- Combine dry ingredients: Add the rolled oats, chia seeds, and ground cinnamon to the container. Stir them together briefly.
- Add wet ingredients and apple: Pour in the milk, maple syrup (or honey), vanilla extract, and the diced apple.
- Mix well: Stir all ingredients thoroughly until everything is combined and the chia seeds are evenly distributed. Make sure no dry oats are stuck at the bottom.
- Seal and chill: Place the lid securely on the container and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Serve: In the morning, stir the oats. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash more milk. Top with extra cinnamon or nuts if desired, and enjoy this grab and go breakfast jar.
Notes
- For a vegan option, use non-dairy milk and maple syrup.
- To make this a high fiber overnight oats recipe, you can increase the chia seeds to 1.5 tablespoons.
- If you want a stronger apple pie flavor, add 1/4 teaspoon of apple pie spice instead of just cinnamon.
- These oats keep well in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, making them excellent for batch meal prep.
