Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk (or almond milk / oat milk)
- ½ cup plain yogurt (Greek yogurt optional for creaminess)
- 1 apple, grated (keep the peel for extra fiber)
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- 2 tbsp nuts (almonds, walnuts, or hazelnuts), chopped
- 2 tbsp raisins or dried cranberries
- ½ tsp cinnamon (optional)
- Fresh fruits for topping (banana, berries, or sliced pear)
Instructions
Combine the base:
- In a large bowl, mix rolled oats, milk, and yogurt until well combined.
Add fruits and flavor:
- Stir in the grated apple, honey (or maple syrup), nuts, dried fruit, and cinnamon.
Soak overnight:
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight. This softens the oats and lets flavors blend beautifully.
Serve:

Top and enjoy:
- Serve in bowls topped with fresh fruits, extra nuts, and a drizzle of honey if desired.
