Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any preferred dairy or plant-based milk)

1 medium apple, peeled and diced into small pieces

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

2 tablespoons maple syrup (or honey if preferred)

1/4 cup Greek yogurt (optional, for added creaminess)

1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional, for added nutrition and texture)

1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (for a delightful crunch)

A pinch of salt

Instructions
 

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the rolled oats with the almond milk and Greek yogurt (if using). Stir the mixture thoroughly until well blended.

    Next, incorporate the diced apple, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, maple syrup, chia seeds, and a pinch of salt into the oats. Mix until all ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

      For added texture, gently fold in the chopped walnuts or pecans. This will enhance the crunch factor of your oats.

        Divide the mixture evenly into two mason jars or airtight containers, ensuring they are sealed tightly to lock in freshness.

          Place the jars in the refrigerator and let them chill overnight, or for a minimum of 4-6 hours. This allows the oats to absorb the liquid and the flavors to meld beautifully.

            In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick, add additional almond milk to reach your preferred consistency. You can also top it with extra diced apples and nuts for added visual appeal and flavor.

              Enjoy your scrumptious and nutritious Apple Pie Overnight Oats either cold straight from the fridge or warmed gently in the microwave for a cozy treat!
