Prepare this easy, no-bake breakfast ahead of time for a wholesome, grab-and-go meal that tastes like apple pie. It is high in fiber and naturally sweetened.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy for vegan)
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt for vegan)
  • 1/2 small apple, finely diced or grated
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup or honey (optional, adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Combine the rolled oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, and salt in a jar or container with a lid.
  2. Add the milk, yogurt, diced apple, and sweetener (if using) to the jar.
  3. Stir all ingredients together well until fully combined. Make sure the oats and chia seeds are submerged in the liquid.
  4. Seal the container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  5. In the morning, stir the mixture. If it is too thick, add a splash more milk.
  6. Eat cold directly from the jar. Top with extra cinnamon or nuts if desired.

Notes

  • For a protein boost, add 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder when mixing the dry ingredients.
  • If you prefer a smoother texture, use applesauce instead of fresh diced apple.
  • This recipe works well for meal prep and keeps for up to 4 days in the refrigerator.
