Apple Crisp Overnight Oats

I wish I were a morning person. I want to wake up when the sun does, go to yoga, brew a cup of coffee, and throw together a gorgeous, healthy breakfast before diving into my work for the day. In reality, I roll out of bed and boil water for tea. While it’s steeping, I make some toast or a quick veggie burger and smear it with avocado. And then I curl up in a blanket on the couch and check my email.

This routine of mine is not glamorous. But, it’s about all I have energy for in the mornings, especially as the weather turns chilly. At the same time, these cool fall days have me craving something a bit more seasonal for breakfast. Given my demonstrated level of effort preparing a morning meal for myself, I won’t be making pumpkin spice waffles or anything similar. Something I can handle, though, is opening a jar of overnight oats and digging in with a spoon.

For me, nothing screams fall more than apples. To take advantage of the most beautiful produce autumn has to offer, I whipped up a batch of Apple Crisp Overnight Oats. Guess what? I instantly fell in love. This recipe has become my lifeline for a nutritious breakfast, and it’s going to be on heavy rotation this season.

These Apple Crisp Overnight Oats pack all the flavor of my favorite fall dessert into a realistic portion I don’t feel guilty eating before 9am. Feel-good ingredients like rolled oats, almond butter, granola (and apples, of course) will stick to your ribs and keep you satisfied straight through to lunch. The crumble topping (aka granola) part of this recipe makes enough for more than a dozen servings of overnight oats. Make it once and keep it in a mason jar to sprinkle on your breakfast for up to two weeks.

    Wow, these oats are fantastic, even without the crunchy granola! I am so obsessed that I’ve made this recipe three days in a row! I like to add some extra cinnamon, vanilla, and zero calorie sweetener for that extra kick of yum!

    Hi Lisa! Yes, you could absolutely use quinoa. I haven't tried it yet myself, but I do think you would need to cook the quinoa and let it cool before adding to the jar with the rest of the ingredients. I'll update the recipe once I give it a shot 🙂

    I haven't had a chance yet to make the crunchy granola, but the overnight oats turned out really good . Thanks for the recipe!
