Why This Recipe Works:

How To Make Apple Crisp Overnight Oats:
1. First, to a mason jar, add the “Base” ingredients and stir.
2. Next, add the “Apple Filling” ingredients to a microwave safe cereal bowl, stir, and then microwave on high for one minute.
FYI – If you like your apples a bit on the softer side, give those apples another stir and then warm for an additional 30 seconds. For me, I like my apples to have a little bit of bite left to them, so I stick with just the one minute.
3. Then, take that “Apple Filling” and add it to the jar without stirring.
4. Place your mason jar filled with apple-y goodness in your refrigerator and allow it to chill and do it’s thang for at least 6 hours… In fact, this jar of deliciousness will keep for about 5 days or so!
5. Just before eating, add your “Final topping.” (See ingredients.)
And that’s it! Your apple crisp overnight oats are officially ready for your taste bud’s enjoyment.
Yum!

- For this recipe I like to use Gala apples, but your favorite apple will work just fine!
