Base & Liquids

1 cups rolled oats

1 cups low-fat milk

1/4 cups plain low-fat yogurt (optional for creaminess)

Seeds & Sweetener

1 tbsp chia seeds

1 tbsp Honey

Fruit Mix

1 each apple, medium (peeled or unpeeled) — grated or finely diced

1/2 tsp lemon juice (to prevent browning, optional)

Toppings (optional)

1/4 tsp Cinnamon

1 tbsp chopped nuts (almonds or walnuts)

1 tsp extra honey or maple syrup

Method

Prepare Fruit Mix

Grate or dice apple

Wash the apple, core it and either grate it or finely dice it. If you want to reduce browning, toss the apple with 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice.

Combine Base Ingredients

In a jar or airtight container (about 16 oz / 500 ml), add 1 cup rolled oats, 1 tablespoon chia seeds, and 1/4 cup yogurt (if using).

Pour in 1 cup low-fat milk and 1 tablespoon honey. Stir thoroughly until the honey is dissolved and the chia seeds are evenly distributed.

Add the prepared apple to the oat mixture and stir to combine so the fruit is evenly distributed.

Chill & Set

Seal the jar or container with a lid. Refrigerate overnight for at least 6–8 hours, or up to 24 hours. During this time the oats and chia will absorb the liquid and soften to a pudding-like consistency.

Finish & Serve

After chilling, stir the oats. If mixture is too thick, stir in additional milk 1–2 tablespoons at a time to reach desired consistency.

Taste and adjust sweetness with up to 1 teaspoon extra honey or maple syrup if desired. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and 1 tablespoon chopped nuts on top for texture. Serve cold.
