Whip up this easy, no-cook Apple Cinnamon Overnight Oats recipe tonight for a creamy, healthy breakfast ready when you wake up. It tastes like apple pie in a jar and is perfect for meal prep.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy for vegan)
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (optional, for protein boost)
  • 1/2 small apple, finely diced
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional Topping: Extra cinnamon, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of honey

Instructions

  1. Combine the rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt (if using), diced apple, chia seeds, maple syrup, cinnamon, and salt in a jar or container with a lid.
  2. Stir all ingredients well until fully mixed. Make sure the oats are submerged in the liquid.
  3. Seal the container tightly and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  4. In the morning, check the consistency. If it is too thick, add a splash more milk.
  5. Add your desired toppings and enjoy this stress-free breakfast immediately.

Notes

  • For a vegan option, use almond or soy milk and omit the Greek yogurt, or substitute with a plant-based yogurt.
  • If you are interested in structured eating plans, check out information on keto meal plan delivery for ideas.
  • To boost the protein content further, add one scoop of vanilla protein powder before refrigerating.
  • This recipe is great for meal planning and can be scaled up for several days of grab and go meals.
