This cozy Apple Pie Overnight Oats recipe with apples, cinnamon, maple syrup, oats, chia seeds and walnuts, tastes just like apple pie!
I’ve been making overnight oats for years. They’re healthy and full of fiber (10 grams!) which will keep you full for hours. This apple pie version is not just healthy, it’s also delicious! Have this for breakfast or as a healthy snack or dessert. You can double the recipe to make four for meal prep.

Yes, these apple pie overnight oats are healthy. With 10 grams of fiber and 8 grams of protein per serving, this breakfast will help you feel full for longer and contributes to a slower blood glucose release. Oats also are an excellent source of many vitamins and minerals, including magnesium, copper, thiamine and zinc. Oats also contain a type of soluble fiber called beta glucan, which lowers blood glucose and cholesterol levels, reducing risk of heart disease and diabetes.
Yes, they are an easy and filling breakfast that are loaded with nutrient-rich ingredients (see above) that promote healthy weight loss.
Both are equally healthy, but it also depends on what you choose to put in your oats. Whole, real food ingredients, like the ones in this recipe, are always the best choice!
The answer is both! I usually let them sit out on my counter for an hour while I go to the gym or get ready for my day to get the chill out. Some people like to heat them up in the microwave for a few minutes, it’s totally up to you.
To make this for meal prep, you can double or quadruple the recipe. You can leave them in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Can I substitute Coaches Oats in the overnight oats recipes. This sounds delicious!?
I understand this is a matter of personal preference. But 2 teaspoons of cinnamon in the apples plus another teaspoon in the oats was wayyy too much cinnamon for me. Which was a surprise because I generally love cinnamon a lot. It’s so much that it gave a powdery texture to the finished recipe. I used good Saigon cinnamon. Next time I will reduce the total amount of cinnamon by half. I say next time because I will be making them again! Thank you, Gina!
I just made this and afterwards thought that was A LOT of cinnamon. I’m thinking I will be adding more milk to my oatmeal tomorrow morning!
I do something similar, only it’s not an overnight oat. I use cranberries and apples, cook the cranberries in the water to a boil until they crack open, add the apples, oats, splash of maple syrup, protein powder, and some cinnamon. It is so good.
So you don’t cook the oatmeal?
I loathe the texture of Chia seeds but I figure they are essential for the overnight oats to thicken. Is there anything else I could use, aside from tapioca which also feels slimy to me?
I have made overnight oats without chia seeds and it worked really well for me! I would just skip them ?
I so agree about the chia. Ick, like snot with a little black dot. Only good for chia pets! LOL. Seriously, I wish I could tolerate them, supposed to be good for you.
This came out as 9 pp for me on WW. Seems like an awful lot, but I guess you try low point foods for lunch and dinner?
It came out at 6 points with our calculation…
Thank you for this recipe! I’m adding it to my meal plan for the week. I have some oat nog (oat milk with egg nog spices) and I think I will use that for the milk of choice. Those sauteed apples sound amazing. Thanks for all you do to create healthy recipes.
What size mason jars do you use?
8 ounce
Maple syrup is kind of difficult to find here, what can I use?
You can try honey!
The recipe steps 3 and 4 say to:
3. Add 1/4 of the oat mixture to 2 mason jars or airtight containers (with lids).
4. Layer each evenly with ¼ of the apples then top each with an equal amount of the remaining oats and 1 tablespoon walnuts.
So we used all the oats, but only half the apples?
Hello, about that – you can top with the remaining apples and the walnuts!
I love your blueberry overnight oats and I’m excited to try a new variation! Is this recipe for 2 or 4 servings? It states 2 servings, but the amount of ingredients and directions are consistent with 4 servings.
serves 2
This sounds delicious! Could I use steel cut oats?
I dont recommend for this recipe.
