Apple Pie Overnight Oats




INGREDIENTS
Overnight Oats:

· 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk

· 1 to 2 medjool dates, pitted

· 1/2 cup rolled oats

· 1/4 cup vegan coconut yoghurt

· 1 tbsp chia seeds

Sautéed Apples:

· 1 apple, cut into about 1 to 1.5cm pieces (make sure to use a sweet variety)

· 2 tbsp freshly squeezed orange juice

· 1/2 tsp maple syrup

· 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon, or to taste

· 1/4 tsp vanilla extract

To serve:

· 1 tbsp roasted silvered or sliced almonds* (see below in notes for directions)

· more vegan coconut yoghurt

Instructions

Overnight Oats: 


· Add the almond milk and one of the medjool dates to a high speed blender and blend until smooth. Taste and add another date if you would prefer it to be sweeter. 

· Pour this into a bowl, along with rolled oats, coconut yoghurt and chia seeds. Refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours or overnight. 


Sautéed Apples: 


· Add the apple pieces along with the rest of the ingredients with 1 tbsp of water to a small frying pan. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 to 15 minutes or until the apples are soft enough for your liking. Add a splash of water to the pan to stop it from drying out if needed. Add the sautéed apples onto the overnight oats. Top with roasted almonds and more coconut yoghurt.

RECIPE NOTES
· To roast the almonds: Preheat oven to 180C (356F) and line a baking tray with baking paper. Place the almonds onto the tray and bake for roughly 5 to 6 minutes or until lightly browned. Keep an eye on this as they can brown quite quickly.
