Apple Pie Overnight Oats

This apple pie overnight oats recipe combines stewed apple, hearty oatmeal and wholesome ingredients to make a flavorful, comforting and packable breakfast that you can prepare for the week. To me, this recipe is my ultimate breakfast to transition into fall. You can eat it hot or cold, and the texture is just thick enough to be filling, but not heavy.

And of course you can mix-and-match this recipe as you like! What I have here are simply guidelines and guesstimates of how I prefer to make it. I’ll share more deets in the post below 🙂

Ingredients for these apple pie overnight oats

Once again, think of this recipe more as guidelines! They are definitely not set in stone. I’ve chosen each ingredient and measurement to maximize the thickness, texture and flavor of these overnight oats, but they are by no means mandatory. Swap things around and see what you like!

Here is the framework I would suggest starting with (for two servings):

• 1 & 1/3 cup rolled oats
• 1 tbsp chia seeds
• 2 tbsp powdered peanut butter or one scoop any protein powder of choice
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• Pinch of salt
• 1 tbsp fig butter or any apple butter or jam
• 1 tbsp pumpkin pureé or pumpkin spice hummus (if you can find it in your area!)
• Large apple, diced
• 2 cups plant-based milk of choice

How to make this vegan apple pie overnight oats recipe

Now, while the ingredients are flexible, I suggest you keep the process the same. Overnight oats are easy, but they are called overnight for a reason! Let them sit to get maximum delicious potential.

The one thing you can change is the apple. If you are ok with eating it raw, go for it! I add the apple raw to my oats all the time, it just depends on what I’m feeling at the moment 🙂

Here is the process I suggest using for this recipe:

• Get two separate jars, make sure each jar can hold around 14-16 ounces.
• Split the oats, chia seeds, powdered pb, cinnamon and salt between each jar.
• Add the fig butter to one jar, and the pumpkin to another.
• Dice up the apple and bring a small skillet to medium heat. Add the apple and a splash of water to the skillet. Sprinkle with cinnamon and cook down until the apple has started to release some moisture and is soft, about 3-4 minutes.
• Split the apple between the two jars. Add the plant-based milk and stir.
• Let the oats cool slightly to room temperature before sealing and storing in the fridge.
• Let sit for 6-12 hours, and eat within 72 hours.

Topping suggestions for these apple pie overnight oats

These oats on their own might be enough for you, but sometimes for me, this apple pie overnight oats recipe needs a few more topping to make it a full breakfast.

And that’s what I love about toppings – they give oats variety! That way you can prep all your breakfasts for the week, but still won’t be eating the “same thing every day” *sigh*

Here are my favorite toppings for these oats:

• Three Wishes Gluten Free Cereal
• Flax Meal
• Maxine’s Heavenly Vegan Cookies
• Almond Butter
• Dried Cranberries
• Dried Berries
• Raisins
• Nut mix

You can probably tell that I love to add some crunch, but really feel free to do whatever speaks to you and your vegan apple pie overnight oats.
