Ingredients

2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon hemp seeds
1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
2 cups Sauteed Apples (cooled slightly)

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Prepare the Sauteed Apples and let cool slightly. (Or, if you don't mind crisp apples in your overnight oats, grate 2 apples and toss with lemon juice.)
Combine yogurt, oats, milk, hemp seeds, and maple syrup in a medium bowl.
Place yogurt mixture and apples in alternating layers in mason jars or storage containers. (You can also blend all of the ingredients together to make a smoother texture if you prefer.)
Seal the container and place into the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or overnight to soften the oats. Serve cold.

Notes

This can be stored in the fridge for 3-5 days in a sealed airtight container.
Dice the apple small enough that the pieces are easy to pick up with a spoon.
Grind up the rolled oats or use instant oats for a smoother texture.
Blend all the ingredients together to make a smoother texture. This is a great method if you'd like to serve this recipe in a reusable pouch.
Omit the added sweetener if serving to a baby. Or try this Applesauce Overnight Oats recipe.
Use berries or mashed banana in place of the apple if preferred.
Dairy-free: Use a favorite nondairy yogurt.
Gluten-free: Use certified gluten-free rolled oats.
