Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (gluten-free if needed)
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of ground ginger
  • Pinch of ground cloves
  • Pinch of kosher salt
  • 1 small apple, cored and diced (Honeycrisp or preferred variety)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp ground flaxseed meal (or chia seeds)
  • Optional toppings: toasted walnuts or almonds, dried fruit, extra maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Add oats, spices, salt, and diced apple to a 16-ounce mason jar or airtight container.
  2. Pour in almond milk, maple syrup, Greek yogurt, and flaxseed (or chia seeds).
  3. Do not stir—seal the jar and refrigerate overnight (at least 8 hours, up to 5 days).
  4. When ready to eat, shake the jar or stir in a bowl. Adjust thickness with more almond milk or yogurt if desired.
  5. Add toppings such as nuts, dried fruit, or extra maple syrup before serving.

Notes

  • Swap Greek yogurt for a dairy-free yogurt to make it vegan.
  • Use pears instead of apples for variation.
  • Stir in almond butter or peanut butter for richness.
  • Add pumpkin purée and pumpkin pie spice for a fall twist.
  • Eat cold or gently warm in the microwave with extra milk.
