This grab and go breakfast is great for those busy mornings. It is a huge time-saver on the Daniel Fast.
There are a few combinations of ingredients that are my favorite when it comes to overnight oats, this Cinnamon Apple Overnight Oats takes second place.
Sometimes I add and mix in about 3/4 cup of water or milk to my overnight oats. Then, I heat it up in a microwave (shown below) or blend it with the toppings and drink it as a shake.
Banana toppings can also be added to this apple base. It's super delish!
For added protein, I sprinkled in some hemp seeds.
Tip: I sometimes cook peel and cook my apple as shown in recipe image. I prefer less crunch in the apple when used as a topping. Cooking softens the apple, and the natural sugars break down which makes it sweeter/less tart.
How to Cook Apples: Peel 1 apple, chop, and place in a small pot with one cup of water. Turn stove on and allow to come to a boil. Turn heat to low and cook for about 8-10 minutes or until apple has softened. A chopped date can also be added and cooked with the apple. This can then be used for oats instead of using raisins or even be eaten as a wonderful treat. When mashed together at the end it will be like apple sauce, sweetened with a date).

Made with a few simple ingredients, the flavors meld together overnight to create a perfect base for a chopped apple topping! Or switch it up and add your favorite toppings!
Measure out one cup of milk and oats into a container. Add almond butter and mix, before adding chia seeds/flaxseeds. Add apple sauce/raisin, 1/2 of the apple (use the other half for topping), cinnamon, nutmeg, and just a sprinkle of salt, and stir well. Allow mixture to rest overnight.
Add your favorite chopped apple as a topping, sprinkle a touch of cinnamon and serve.
When buying natural peanut butter or almond butter, be sure to check the ingredients listed. The Nutrition Label should also have "zero gram/0g added sugar."
