This is one of my easy, go-to breakfast options that gives me sustained energy throughout my morning. Sometimes I even portion it out into jars, so I can easily grab one in the morning.

Feel free to experiment with different fruits, flavors, etc. All you need to remember to do is soak the oats the night before!
In the morning drain water through mesh strainer, and mix oats with yogurt, apple, syrup, raisins, walnuts as well as chia seeds, cinnamon and/or vanilla if desired.
3
Mix together and taste. Add more maple syrup if desired. Add non-dairy milk to thin if desired.
4
Store in the fridge. The oats will stay good for 4-5 days (enough for all your weekday breakfasts). Mix thoroughly before serving each morning.
Recipe Notes
Non-dairy alternative: Soak oats in non-dairy milk (almond or cashew) overnight instead of water. Omit the yogurt. Mix with all other ingredients.
