Have you ever tried overnight oats?\u00a0 Because if you haven’t, you definitely should. So I hate to admit this, but I had never tried them until Tracy asked me to make some fall inspired overnight oats and boy, was I surprised at how delicious they are!\u00a0 For this recipe, we decided to do a cinnamon\/apple topping on the overnight oats to go with the fall theme.\u00a0 There’s nothing better than those rich cinnamon spices and apples to help you get into the fall mood. Adding a dollop of Greek yogurt to your Cinnamon Apple Overnight Oats will increase your protein as well.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Start with your fresh fall apples.\u00a0 Peel, core and dice the apples to the desired size.\u00a0 Put the apple topping ingredients in a medium sized pot, stir and cook on medium\/low heat.\u00a0 Don’t forget to stir.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Did you know that apples are a good source of vitamin C, fibre and antioxidants. They are also quite filling when you consider their low calorie count.\u00a0 Remember the ol’ saying, “an apple a day, keeps the doctor away<\/strong><\/em>“?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Well after reading about how good apples are for you, it makes sense!\u00a0 With high level of soluble fibre pectin, apples can lower blood pressure, glucose levels and bad cholesterol and they can help maintain the health of the digestive system.\u00a0 Of course, it’s always good to add a protein to your apple to help keep the sugars in it from spiking your insulin, so I will definitely be adding some nut butter or Greek yogurt to my apple a day!\u00a0 In this recipe we are adding greek yogurt, almond milk and protein powder; good sources of protein, so we are good to go.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As the apples cook, they will cook down a bit and the water will reduce.\u00a0 Be sure to stir every couple of minutes.\u00a0 I cover the apples with a lid for the first 10 minutes of cooking.\u00a0 I mashed and cooked the apples another 5 minutes without a lid because I like my apples softer and less chunky.\u00a0 Feel free to cook your apples to your desired tenderness and size.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

While the apples cook, prepare the overnight oats. Simply put all the dry ingredients in a bowl and stir.\u00a0 Then add the wet ingredients and blend well together by stirring.\u00a0 Once you’ve done this, you can add the oats to the containers you are going to make your Cinnamon Apple Overnight Oats in.\u00a0 I used mason jars and that worked perfectly.\u00a0 This recipe makes 6-8 servings.\u00a0 If there is just 1-2 people eating this, I would half the recipe.\u00a0 In fact, I will include the smaller recipe in this post to make dividing it easier for you.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Once the apple topping is finished and cooled, simply add a scoop to each overnight oats.\u00a0 Put in fridge overnight and serve for breakfast in the morning!<\/p>\n
