This recipe for apple cinnamon overnight oats couldn’t be easier to make. Many folks love it cold, but I like to heat it up a little since I’m not a big fan of it right out of the fridge. Go ahead and use overnight oats type of milk you’d like. Unsweetened almond milk adds a nice subtle nuttiness.
Add a handful of nuts for crunch, flavor and extra health benefits. Did anyone else catch a case of the late August blues? After spending four relaxing days with my family in Kansas City, I’m struggling to say goodbye to the lazy days of summer. My single source of the fresh, pencil-sharpening, back-to-school energy I knew in elementary school: Apple Cinnamon Overnight Oats. As an elementary school student, I looked forward to the end of summer, because it meant the beginning of a new school year. I had a brand-new Lisa Frank trapper keeper to prove it.
As an adult, the transition between seasons is less defined, but still present. Although I no longer have a first day of school to signal summer’s end, I can sense the arrival of fall. In summer, I can eat chips and dip for lunch, ignore my to-do list in favor of watching the sunset, and leave my bed unmade. Fall feels less accepting of these things.
