Ingredients For Apple Pie Overnight Oats

1/2 cup Rolled Oats: Rolled oats are the heart of this recipe, providing a wholesome base. They are rich in fiber, which keeps you feeling full, and they are a great source of essential nutrients. Plus, they absorb the flavors and moisture, transforming into a creamy and satisfying morning meal.

1 tbsp Chia Seeds: Chia seeds are nutritional powerhouses known for their high fiber, protein, and omega-3 fatty acid content. In this recipe, they play a crucial role in thickening the oats and adding a pleasant, pudding-like consistency.

Pinch Sea salt: A pinch of salt may seem insignificant, but it balances the sweetness and enhances the overall flavor profile. It’s the unsung hero that brings out the best in all the other ingredients.

1 tbsp Pure Honey: A touch of honey adds natural sweetness and a warm flavor. This natural sweetener brings a pleasant contrast to the slightly tart apples and enhance the overall taste.

1/2 tsp Real Vanilla: Vanilla extract provides a subtle and sweet aroma, enhancing the overall depth of flavor. It’s a comforting addition that makes the oats feel more indulgent.

5 tbsp Organic Applesauce: 3 tbsp for the recipe and 2 tbsp for topping. Applesauce brings the essence of fresh apples to the recipe while maintaining a low-sugar and healthy profile. It adds natural sweetness, moisture, and that classic apple pie flavor without the need for added sugars.

1/8 tsp Cinnamon: Cinnamon is the spice that infuses the oats with warm, cozy notes reminiscent of apple pie. It’s also known for its potential health benefits, including antioxidant properties.

1/8 tsp Nutmeg: It adds a distinctive warm and nutty flavor that complements the sweet and fruity notes of the apples. Its aromatic qualities contribute to the overall comforting and cozy essence associated with traditional apple pie recipes.

1/2 cup Oat Milk: Whether you choose dairy or non-dairy milk, it contributes creaminess and calcium to the oats. It’s the liquid that helps bind all the ingredients together and creates a smooth, delightful texture.

1/3 cup Whipped Cream for topping: Adding a dollop of velvety whipped cream to your Apple Pie Overnight Oats takes this breakfast treat to the next level. The airy richness of the cream perfectly complements the warm spices and sweet apples, creating a delightful symphony of textures and flavors that’s sure to make every bite a decadent experience.

2 tbsp sliced Almonds: Almonds are the finishing touch for added texture and healthy fats. They can be sprinkled on top for a satisfying crunch and a boost of nutrition. You can swap these for your nuts of choice. Check out our list of nut ideas for overnight oats.

Freshly sliced apple if desired for extra topping.

These carefully selected ingredients work in harmony to create a breakfast that’s not only incredibly delicious but also packed with nutrients and flavor.

The combination of fiber, vitamins, and wholesome goodness makes this recipe a delightful way to kickstart your mornings.

Directions For Apple Pie Overnight Oats

1. In a 12oz jar, combine the rolled oats, chia seeds, sea salt, honey, vanilla, applesauce, cinnamon and nutmeg.

2. Add the oat milk and stir until completely incorporated and there are no dry pockets.

3. Seal the mason jar with a lid and refrigerate it for at least 4 hours or overnight. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and become soft and creamy.

4. Before adding toppings, check to see if you like the consistency. If the mixture is too thick for your liking, you can add a little more oat milk to reach your desired thickness.

5. Top your Apple Pie Overnight Oats with whipped cream, apple sauce & almonds. And add fresh apple if desired.

Apple Pie Overnight Oats FAQs

Can I use steel-cut oats instead of rolled oats?

Steel-cut oats are not ideal for overnight oats as they require longer cooking times and soaking times. Using them in overnight oats may result in a very chewy and hard texture.. You might want to let them soak for a longer period or even cook them slightly before assembling the jar. Check our Guide To Overnight Oats for more!

Can I make a larger batch and store it for the week?

Absolutely! You can scale up the recipe to make several jars for the week. Just ensure they are sealed properly, and they should stay fresh for up to about 4 days in the refrigerator.

Can I use frozen apples instead of fresh ones?

While fresh apples provide a nice crunch and flavor, you can use frozen apple chunks in a pinch. Thaw and drain them before adding to the oats. Keep in mind that they might be softer in texture than fresh apples.

How can I make this recipe vegan?

To make this recipe vegan, use a non-dairy milk (such as almond, soy, or oat milk), and replace honey with maple syrup or another vegan sweetener. Ensure all your ingredients are certified vegan-friendly. Check out our list of vegan milk options.

Can I warm up the overnight oats before eating them?

Yes! While the appeal of this recipe is its no-cook convenience, you can certainly warm it up if you prefer. Just transfer the contents of the mason jar to a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until it reaches your desired temperature.

If you like warm oats, then our Apple Butter Overnight Oats recipe is fantastic to warm up as well.
