Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

1 small apple, diced (preferably Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for tartness)

1 tablespoon chia seeds

1 tablespoon maple syrup (feel free to adjust based on your sweetness preference)

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

1/4 cup walnuts or pecans, chopped (optional for added texture)

Extra apple slices for topping

A dollop of yogurt (dairy or non-dairy, optional)

Instructions
 

In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly, ensuring that all ingredients are well incorporated.

    Gently fold in the diced apple, being careful not to mash the apple pieces. If you're adding walnuts or pecans, incorporate them at this stage for additional crunch and flavor.

      Divide the oat mixture evenly into two jars or airtight containers. Seal the jars tightly and place them in the refrigerator. Allow them to chill overnight, or for at least 4 hours, to give the oats time to absorb the liquid and flavors.

        The next morning, take the jars out of the fridge and stir the oats well. If the mixture is thicker than you’d like, add a splash of almond milk to achieve your desired consistency.

          Top your oats with fresh apple slices and a dollop of yogurt, if using. For an extra touch of sweetness or spice, drizzle with additional maple syrup or sprinkle with more cinnamon.

            Enjoy your delightful, nutritious Apple Pie Overnight Oats either cold or warmed up—perfect for a busy morning!
