Tips Before Making Your High Protein Vegan Apple Cinnamon Overnight Oats

Choose the Right Oats

For the best texture, use old fashioned rolled oats when you make overnight oats, as they soften nicely while still keeping some bite. Quick oats can work in a pinch, but they tend to become much softer, while steel cut oats usually stay too firm for this recipe unless they soak much longer.

Adjust the Texture to Your Liking

One of the easiest things about high protein overnight oats is how simple they are to adjust based on the texture you enjoy most. For a thicker spoonful, add a little more Silk Vanilla plant based Yogurt or a sprinkle of chia seeds; for a looser texture, add a bit more Silk Almond & Cashew Protein Vanilla beverage and let everything rest in a mason jar overnight.

Make It Your Own, Toppings & Variations

You can make this recipe your own by changing the toppings or adding a few simple extras before serving. Try apple slices, a dusting of cinnamon, a tablespoon of peanut butter, or an extra spoonful of plant based Yogurt for a different finish that still fits the warm apple cinnamon flavour of these oats.

Questions Related to the High Protein Vegan Apple Cinnamon Overnight Oats

How Long Do Overnight Oats Last in the Fridge?

This recipe works well for meal prep, especially when you want breakfast ready ahead of time. When properly covered, overnight oats will last up to 3 days in the fridge, so you can store overnight oats in a jar or container and enjoy them over the next few mornings. If you make more than one serving, the rest of the overnight oats can be kept chilled until you are ready to eat them. For the best texture and flavour, overnight oats made with fruit toppings are often best enjoyed within the first couple of days in the fridge.

What Is the Difference Between Overnight Oats and Regular Oatmeal?

The main difference comes down to how the oats are prepared. To make this oatmeal recipe, regular oatmeal is usually cooked on the stove or in the microwave, while overnight oats are left to soak overnight in the fridge. That soaking time gives them a soft texture without needing to cook the oats in the usual way. This recipe uses rolled oats, which are a great fit for this method. Quick oats can soften faster, while using steel cut oats will usually give you a firmer texture and may require a longer soaking time.

Can I Add More Protein to This Recipe?

Yes, there are a few simple ways to add protein without protein powder if you want to change the texture or build on the ingredients already in the bowl. A little more Silk Vanilla plant based Yogurt can work well, and some people also like adding chia seeds or a tablespoon of peanut butter for extra texture. These easy additions can help you customize your protein oats while keeping the apple cinnamon flavour at the centre of the recipe. Want to try other vegan recipes?

Ingredients

Apples:
1/2 cup of diced apples
2 teaspoons maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup of water
Oats:
1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats
1 cup of Silk Almond & Cashew Protein Vanilla beverage
1/2 tablespoon maple syrup (optional)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup of Silk Vanilla plant based Yogurt

Instructions

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the diced apples, maple syrup, cinnamon, and water. Cook for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft. Remove from the heat and let them cool.
In a bowl or jar, combine the rolled oats, Silk Almond & Cashew Protein Vanilla Unsweetened beverage, maple syrup (if using), and ground cinnamon. Stir until well mixed.
Cover and place in the fridge overnight, or for at least 8 hours, so the oats can soften and the texture can set.
When ready to serve, stir the oats, then spoon them into a bowl or enjoy them straight from the jar.
Top with the cooked apples and Silk Vanilla plant based Yogurt. Finish with an extra sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.
