These easy Apple Pie Overnight Oats are a healthy breakfast that are perfect for on the go! Made with pantry staples.
Overnight oats are one of my go-to breakfasts for road trips and busy mornings. I always have gluten free rolled oats in my pantry, so I can throw them together the night before.
They are a great way to get in more fruit or veggies. Carrot Cake Overnight Oats is a fun way to get some carrots in.
Pumpkin Pie Overnight Oats is another recipe with veggies.
For even more convenience I like to add coffee to my overnight oats. My Thai Coffee Overnight Oats are perfect for that.

🧾 Ingredients
- Gluten free rolled oats: Old fashioned rolled oats work best for overnight oats. They get soft enough while not being too mushy.
- Apple sauce: Adds a sweet apple flavor.
- Cinnamon and nutmeg: Adds warming spices that go so well with apple.
- Maple syrup: I used maple syrup because it is one of my favorite sweeteners. You could also use agave syrup, dates, brown sugar, white sugar, or a sugar free sweetener.
- Almond milk or soy milk: I like almond milk and soy milk because they are rich and creamy. You can use whatever dairy-free milk you like.
- Salt: To enhance the flavors and bring out the sweetness of the maple syrup.
- Walnuts: For some crunch. You could also use pecans or leave them out altogether.
- Apple: I used a Gala apple, but you could use whatever your favorite is.
