These overnight oats will not only make your day brighter with their incredible taste, but they will also make you fuller throughout the day. Compared to old-fashioned oats, steel-cut oats used in this recipe yields a larger portion. This means you can eat fewer oats, but it’ll take you longer to digest. As an added bonus, this healthy overnight breakfast recipe will have your house smelling like freshly baked apple pie when you wake up in the morning. 

Another plus is the fact that it’s made with simple ingredients that you can easily buy at your local grocery store.

Kitchen Notes and Tips

  • Do not substitute any other type of oats for this recipe. The cooking time indicated here on this post is based only on steel-cut oats only.
  • It’s important to either line or heavily grease the sides of your slow cooker crock before preparing this recipe. If you skip this step, the oats will stick to the sides and will be very difficult to remove.
  • If you plan to make it ahead for your meal prep, store it in an airtight container to prolong its freshness.
