Protein Apple Pie Overnight Oats
Creamy vanilla protein overnight oats layered with maple cinnamon apples – all the apple pie flavor with 23 grams of protein per jar!
Servings: 4 cups
Equipment
- small saucepan
Ingredients
Apples
- 1 large honeycrisp apple peeled, cored and diced + extra for topping, if desired
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp cinnamon
Oats
- 1 cup gluten free oats I used One Degree Sprouted Rolled Oats
- 1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup chia seeds
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ⅛ tsp nutmeg
- 2 scoops vanilla protein powder I use Clean Simple Eats brand
- 1 cup milk of choice I like Fairlife 2%
Optional toppings:
- more diced apples
- chopped pecans
Instructions
- Heat the apples, maple syrup, and cinnamon in a small pot over medium heat for 8-10 mins, stirring often, until softened and slightly caramelized.
- Combine all of the oats ingredients in a large bowl and mix to combine.
- Divide half of the oat mixture between 4 jars, then add ¼ of the apples to each jar to form a middle layer, followed by the remaining oats mixture on top.
- Refrigerate 2 hours, up to overnight. Top with more apples or some chopped up pecans, if desired!
Notes
- The oats will be runny prior to refrigerating, so the apples will kind of get mixed in. For more of a true "layered" look, refrigerate the oats mixture FIRST, and then divide between the jars with the apples as a middle layer. I personally think it's great either way!
- Sealed jars keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- To make these dairy free, sub a dairy-free yogurt, non-dairy milk, and a plant-based protein powder.
