  2. To the pan, add the water, maple syrup, and cinnamon. Cook over medium-high heat, and allow the apples to soften for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and let cool.
  3. Add all of the other ingredients to the jar, and mix to combine. Β Add the cooked apple chunks to the top. Cover and let it sit overnight in the fridge. The next morning, top with yogurt and enjoy!

This was VERY good. I’m not much of an overnight oats fan but I love green apple with cinnamon. I recommend peeling your apples tho cuz it creates a weird texture.

The apple pie overnight oats were delicious! I made 10 mason jars for me and my husband. We both loved it.

Lissy - Feb. 11, 2023, 8:46 a.m.

It's a breakfast worth waking up for!! I usually take it with me for trips, since it's easy to transport and it saves me a lot of time in the mornings:) but also for weekdays it's just so comforting to have, and feels more like a dessert than a wholesome breakfast:) can't wait to try all the other recipes!!
Also wanted to say a huge thank you to you, Sadia. You're such a lovely person, a real sunshine in my opinion. All of your videos, either recipes or teatime tuesdays are incredibly comfort to watch, and bring so much joy to me!!

This is my favourite overnight oats recipe, I have made it so many times now and I love it! The instructions are clear, the video is beautiful (as always) and the end product is fantastically delicious. It is a great way to use up left over apples and if you have a craving for apple pies, but don't have the time to bake some, this is the perfect fast recipe to satisfy your cravings.

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 10, 2023, 9:28 p.m.

Oh thank you for the glowing feedback, Anna, it means so much ☺️


Archa - Feb. 8, 2023, 8:42 a.m.

This has become my favorite breakfast and had it for two weeks in a row. I made 5 batches and kept it for 5 days in the fridge which stayed good. I just switch up the nuts sometimes, almond also goes very well with the recipe.

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 8, 2023, 9:52 p.m.

Mmmm...I just took my first couple of bites of this and came here to say how marvelous it tastes! I wouldn't have expected to like this one so much, but it's excellent. The almond butter adds such a richness, and the crunch of the walnuts and apples is delightful. My husband said the yogurt on top makes it feel like apple pie a la mode. :) 10/10 would make again!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Nov. 5, 2022, 12:08 a.m.

Kelsey - Oct. 16, 2022, 7:56 p.m.

Loved the Apple Pie Overnight Oats!! For us, one recipe made enough for two medium sized servings topped with a spoon of yogurt and sprinkle of granola for crunch. I modified a bit -- used 1 TBSP nut butter and 2 tsp chia seeds. For those worried about sugar content, keep in mind that the majority of the sugar is in natural form from the apples and raisins. We took it on a camping trip and heated it up for breakfast in the morning -- delicious and plan to make again. Thank you!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Oct. 17, 2022, 12:14 a.m.

Thank you for taking the time to share, Kelsey! We're so glad the overnight oats were enjoyed with the modifications πŸ˜ƒ

Love this idea, but yikes the sugar content !

PUL small logo PUL Team - Sept. 12, 2022, 4:17 p.m.

Hey Sharon! We personally enjoy the deliciously sweet flavour and energy that apple and syrup can provide. Feel free to add less of the sweeter ingredient if desired and adjust to taste. For example, add less syrup and more cinnamon πŸ™‚

Sharon - Sept. 12, 2022, 7:34 p.m.

I love it! It's been hard trying to find quick vegan recipes that I like because I just transitioned to veganism. I love how I can make this the night before and eat this for breakfast which is really convenient because I start 8th grade next month. It tastes amazing and my non vegan mom loves it too, I would definitely recommend.

I used to find overnight oats really boring but your recipes have made me actually crave for them not just for breakfast but sometimes for lunch or when I want a quick snack. They're easy to make, tastes absolutely delicious and his highly nutritious. I'm not vegan but I find myself really enjoying your recipes which in turn makes me eat plants more often!

PUL small logo PUL Team - March 27, 2022, 9:02 p.m.

Aw we're so happy they're being enjoyed, Evie, thank you!


Juliette - Jan. 14, 2022, 3:45 p.m.

We have been making this at least once a week for a few months now. We love to have more luxurious breakfasts during the weekend, and your oats recipes have helped us shift from croissants and pancakes to more healthy stuff. We prepare them in the morning (I love the comfort of warm oats) instead of overnight. Will have it again tomorrow morning and I'm already excited about it.

Can we omit maple syrup for the spiced apple bits

PUL small logo PUL Team - Jan. 12, 2022, 3:49 a.m.

Hi Lea, you can omit the syrup if desired. If the apples are more tart, you could add an alternative sugar or syrup to taste for sweetness πŸ™‚


Jay - Dec. 13, 2021, 11:08 p.m.

SO good! Inspired me to make this for weeks afterwards.

Mentioned this before on IG but worth repeating: Hands down THE best overnight oats recipe. Everyone in my family enjoys this one including our 3.5 year old and 16 month old.

Could you please create other overnight oats recipe variations? (I've tried the other PUL ones as well!) And if possible, other easy breakfast recipes? They are a game changer in setting the tone for the day in a household with children lol.

Thank you for creating PUL and all that it offers!

Ay - Nov. 18, 2021, 9:38 p.m.

I love oatmeal but i was getting tired of my own typical recipe so i tried this and im so glad i did. This recipe is seriously the BEST oatmeal I've ever had PERIOD! Im personally not a huge fan of the texture of overnight oats so i just cook my oats like normal and then follow the rest of the recipe as is and its seriously so delicious AND healthy and keeps me full for a few hours, which is great! I like it with pecans and cranraisins the best and i actually use peanut butter or a combo of peanut butter and almond butter because i like the apple and peanut butter combo. I usually make a large batch at the beginning of the week and separate it into portions for each morning so i can grab it, and go and pop it in the microwave once i get to work. PUL recipes never let me down!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Nov. 19, 2021, 2:03 a.m.

Now that apple season is here I’ve been making this apple pie overnight oats around once a week. I never knew overnight oats could taste this good! Recipe also works great for cooked oats as well if you want something warm.

The combo of cinnamon, maple syrup, and vanilla puts this one over the top.

PUL small logo PUL Team - Nov. 9, 2021, 2:38 a.m.

One of my favorite overnight oat recipes of all time! The cooked apples add the PERFECT texture and sweetness to my morning meal. I also love the grated apples that adda bit of freshness. I used to make apple pie overnights with applesauce, but oof... this is far superior in my opinion β—‘Μˆ

Jenni H. - July 25, 2021, 4:39 a.m.

My kid (9 years old) loves apple pie - when he saw this recipe he begged me to make it. So, so, good. We were both happy because it tasted amazing and I didn't have to put together breakfast in the morning when my brain only works at half capacity. (Instead of using just cinnamon, mainly because I couldn't find it in the cupboard, I used a pumpkin pie spice mix - which was a nice addition of warming spices and flavors.)

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 27, 2021, 12:51 a.m.

My husband just can't get enough of this overnight oats, perfect for busy mornings.


Sarah - July 23, 2021, 6:15 a.m.

I LOVE this one. This recipe is great for fall and transitions well into colder weather if you use the same ingredients (except the yogurt) and heat it up.

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 25, 2021, 6:48 a.m.

A lovely idea, Sarah, thanks so much for sharing!

Archa - Nov. 5, 2021, 11:31 p.m.

Hi Sarah,
How do you heat it up? In the microwave?

Sarah - Nov. 6, 2021, 4:45 a.m.

Archa,

You probably could heat it up in the microwave, but I just do it on the stove top. I've taken inspiration from this recipe and her comforting oatmeal recipe. For two servings I heat up one cup of oats, two cups of milk (or milk alternative) , and one banana. Meanwhile. In another pan I cook an apple with cinnamon and maple syrup and water (from this recipe).

When the banana has dissolved in the oatmeal, turn off the heat and add one tablespoon of ground flaxseed (if you like a thicker oatmeal) and the rest of the ingredients from this recipe (be sure you have the quantities for two servings). Mix until combined. Serve into bowls and divide the cooked apple, cinnamon, syrup mixture between the bowls.

Depending on how hungry you are, this actually makes 2-4 servings


Jella - July 19, 2021, 7:20 p.m.

So good! I love a sweet breakfast and this is just the perfect dessert like breakfast. I made it for a friend once and she also absolutely loved it!


Lisa - July 12, 2021, 12:06 p.m.

So, I was eating this almost daily for the last 2 Months, so you can probably guess how much I love it.
Here are some things I tried in this time with the recipe:

- Personally I don't really like the texture of porridge and overnight oats so instead of letting it sit for 12 hours, I just let it sit for 10-15 Minutes what makes it a bit more chunky but still extremely delicious.
- It is currently summer and I'm a bit lazy so I stopped cooking the apple after a few days and just added it fresh, that makes it really refreshing and more juicy in the summer months
- If you don't cook the apple you can change it to a lot of other raw fruits and it still tastes awesome, the base works really well with peaches for example

No matter what, I guess I will keep eating this for a long time, thank you Sadia for creating this wonderful recipe, it is the first time I like eating oats. <3

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 16, 2021, 6:12 a.m.

Daphni - May 3, 2021, 10:39 p.m.

So... as I was preparing these for tomorrow (didn't have apples, so I used apple mousse instead), I thought I should have a spoon-full to taste how they turned out...
...and ended up eating the whole glas with my partner :)

Since they are quite high-energy, I made two servings out of the one and filled the remaining space with some fruit we had left (banana in this case).

Will definitely try the recipe again, as soon as we have some apples!
Yum!

PUL small logo PUL Team - May 8, 2021, 10:11 p.m.

I love the design of your new site and how the ingredient quantity changes according to servings. it makes things so much more easier, measuring ingredients and such. I'm not vegan but your recipes make me want to have a more healthy diet overall. everything here look so delicious. and apple pie is my favorite dessert so definitely going to try and make this first. i don't see much green apples here in Japan, would it be okay to use a fuji apple or a normal red one instead?

Wonderful and rich dessert overnight oat! I really like the combination of raw and caramelised apple, which gives a good variety of textures. I was nevertheless surprised that the cinnamon didn’t come through as expected. I realised later that I had used Ceylon cinnamon, which is milder than the Indonesian one that is common in Sweden. Mistake πŸ™„
