Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk or unsweetened coconut milk (from a container, not a can)
  • 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 apple peeled, cored, and diced (I prefer Honeycrisp for this recipe)
  • 2 Tablespoons chia seeds
  • 2 Tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Optional Garnishes:

  • Chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans
  • Raisins
  • Extra apple slices
  • Drizzle of maple syrup

Instructions

  • Combine Oats and Milk: In a large bowl, mix rolled oats and almond milk or coconut milk until well combined.
  • Add Applesauce and Apple: Stir in applesauce and diced apple.
  • Mix In Chia Seeds and Sweetener: Add chia seeds and maple syrup, stirring until evenly distributed.
  • Season: Sprinkle in cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Add vanilla extract and mix well.
  • Chill: Cover the bowl and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours. Alternatively, transfer oats to meal prep containers or mason jars, then refrigerate.
  • Serve: In the morning, give the oats a good stir. Serve cold, topped with optional toppings like chopped nuts, raisins, extra apple slices, or a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.

Notes

Prepping In Advance: You can prep these oats up to 3 days in advance. Just keep them stored in an airtight container in the fridge, and give them a stir before serving.
Refrigerator Storage: Keep any leftovers refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days. The oats may thicken up over time, so just add a splash of milk before serving if needed.
