Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup Milk (or dairy-free alternative)
- 1 medium Apple
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
- 2 teaspoons Maple syrup (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Nutmeg (optional)
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 tablespoons Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans, optional)
- 2 tablespoons Raisins or dried cranberries (optional)
- (optional) Greek yogurt or additional milk (for serving)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl or a large jar with a lid, combine the rolled oats, milk, and chia seeds.
Core and finely dice the apple. Add it to the bowl or jar.
Stir in the maple syrup, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Mix until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
If using nuts and dried fruit, fold them into the mixture.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or seal the jar with its lid. Place it in the refrigerator and let it sit overnight, or for at least 6-8 hours.
In the morning, give the oatmeal a good stir. Add a little extra milk if you prefer a thinner consistency.
Serve chilled or warm it up in the microwave or on the stovetop. Top with a dollop of Greek yogurt or an extra sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired.
