Is this a healthy recipe?

The word “healthy” is really subjective and can vary from person to person. Some ingredients in this may not be good for someone with certain health problems.

That being said, overnight oats can be super nutritious and have many health benefits!

• High in fiber, thanks to the oats, apple, and chia seeds
• High in protein with the Greek yogurt and milk
• Filled with vitamins and other nutrients

Basically, every ingredient in here is a whole food and has its own set of nutrients. All of it will help keep you full longer!

Ingredients

• Rolled oats
• Greek yogurt
• Milk
• Chia seeds
• Honey
• Cinnamon
• Diced apples

Additions/Substitutions

• Milk: Use a non-dairy milk instead, like oat milk, coconut milk, almond milk, or soy milk
• Yogurt: Use vanilla Greek yogurt, or a plant-based yogurt instead
• Maple syrup instead of honey
• Ground flax seed instead of chia seeds

How to make this recipe vegan

You can easily turn this into a breakfast made with no animal products! Here are the ingredients you need to change:

• Milk
• Yogurt
• Honey

Maple syrup is a good substitute for honey, and you can find plant-based versions of milk and yogurt at your local grocery store.

How to make

In two wide-mouth Mason jars, divide and combine the oats, yogurt, milk, chia seeds, honey, cinnamon, and apples.

Place the lids on top and store in the fridge overnight, or at least 3-4 hours.

The next morning, stir the contents again and enjoy. Add extra toppings, if desired.

How to store

I typically use Mason jars because I like how they look. The 8-ounce jars are a good standard size, but the 16-ounce jars have more space to stir all the ingredients.

If you don’t have Mason jars, you can always use regular airtight containers. Store the oatmeal in the fridge until ready to eat.

Once prepared, these will stay fresh in the fridge for 5-6 days!

Toppings ideas

If you want to add a little extra to your oatmeal, you can top it with more ingredients when you’re ready to eat! Here are some examples:

• Whipped cream
• Extra cinnamon
• Nuts
• Nut butter
• Shredded coconut
