Blueberry and Apple Overnight Oats
Busy mornings? Prepare two or three servings of overnight oats at a time and top with your favourite fruit, chopped nuts, seeds or a cooked fruit puree.
1/2 cup whole rolled oats
1/2 cup low fat milk or a plant based milk, more as needed
1/2 teaspoon maple syrup or honey
Desired toppings/flavourings: Blueberries and sliced apple or your own combination of fruit, seed, nuts or even cocoa!
In a small jar, combine the oats, milk and maple syrup or honey. Stir and chill overnight.
In the morning, scoop the oats into a bowl, stir in more milk, if desired, for consistency.
Top with desired toppings. I like fresh blueberries and sliced apple but you could try strawberry and chopped almonds, honey banana and walnuts, stirred in cocoa with fresh cherries (Black Forest oats!) or frozen raspberries and chopped roasted macadamias.
Or, for a really fast breakfast, you can assemble the overnight oats in jars with the toppings the night before and take it with you to work.
